Hawai'i - City Lights (12/26/2011)

Monday, December 26, 2011
After swimming with the dolphins, we needed a nap.
Then we had dinner at a place recommmended by Heath from Dolphin Excursions. La Mariana Sailing Club is a tiny privately owned boat club (vs. yacht club) with a cute little restaurant on the water beyond an industrial area down Sand Island Access Road off Nimitz Highway.

I had a dish where the fried eggplant was the "bowl" for the seafood:

Afterwards, we went to see the Honolulu City Lights, the holiday light display at Honolulu Hale/City Hall.
