Ok, maybe it's just being in this place, it seems that everything is more beautiful and more photo worthy in Hawai'i. Even the abundant lava rocks are begging to be photographed. I haven't gotten to them yet but it's on the list.
After we dropped our luggage off at our room, we headed over to the Fairmont Orchid for the Gathering of the Kings Luau. I chose this one because it's supposedly the best for food (5 buffet tables representing Samoa, Hawaii, New Zealand, Tahiti and a special "Dessert Island".
