On this day Ben and I woke up at 7am, which was considered sleeping in to us because we had been getting up around 6am the previous days. It felt good to get a little more shuteye and we were anxious to get out and start exploring the grounds around the Ritz. We headed up to the “Adventure Lodge” on the property, which helps guests plan different adventures around the island. A very helpful employee told us of the old golf course that had now been turned into a walking trail. It sounded perfect. It was only 3 miles and Ben could check out the old course. We took a map and headed out. First we walked towards the water to see the lava rocks along the coast. Beautiful. It was a good way to see the ruggedness of coastline. Then we headed up towards to old golf course for our hike. It was neat to walk around an abandoned course. It felt like a ghost town! It had a LOT of hills that were good for me but for the average walker it was pretty steep but the views from the top were so unexpected! You could see sooo far. Ben and I stopped just to take it all in. The walk took us about 1.5 hours and by the time we had finished we were ready for lunch. We stopped into the Ritz general store and picked up a few things to make lunch in our room. The rest of the day was going to be spent doing absolutely nothing but relaxing by the pool and ocean. Because we had such a good food experience at Kai we decided to try another meal at the hotel. We really loved the bar/lounge atmosphere so we kept it casual with dinner that night. The dinner was anything but ordinary though! We shared a chicken Caesar salad and a burger trio plate with fries. There were 3 mini burgers with cheese and bacon…YUMMY! We pretty much devoured that dinner. For dessert we had ice cream again with cookies instead of the bowl. Good stuff. Once again, we called it a night and went to bed for a good night sleep.
