All Reviews for Luau, Shows & Entertainment

I participated in the garden tour at the Bishop Museum. I took the city bus, which took about 45 minutes, and arrived before the opening. The gate was open, so I relaxed in the garden and took some photos. The garden tour with a Japanese guide started at 9:15.

I learned about the names and origins of the plants, heard Hawaiian folklore, and had the unique experience of cracking kukui nuts and touching them, which I couldn't have done without the guide. The bracelet I made became my souvenir.

I highly recommend that after the garden tour, you don't leave right away but continue to spend time at the Bishop Museum. There are many hands-on exhibits where you can play and touch traditional Hawaiian instruments, making it a lot of fun for both kids and adults. The planetarium was also great.

ビショップミュージアムのガーデンツアーに参加してきました。
市バスに乗り、約45分。開園前に到着。ゲートは開いていたので、お庭でまったりして、写真を撮って。9時15分から日本語ガイドさんにて園内のガーデンツアー開始。
植物の名前や由来を聞いてハワイ昔話を聞いて、ククイナッツを割って実際に触るなど、ガイドさん無しでは出来ない体験をすることができました。作ったブレスレットは自分のお土産に。
ぜひ、オススメしたいのは、ガーデンツアーの後、すぐに帰らずに引き続き、ビショップミュージアムで過ごすこと。ハワイの伝統楽器の音を出したり、触ったり、体験型の展示が多いので、すごく楽しめます。子供も大人も。プラネタリウムも良かったです。

If you love learning about history, culture and origins then this is the day trip for you. From the smiling and informative tour guide and coach driver down to the guest. Services staff. Everybody had a smile on their faces and they were there to be of assistance at all times.

Our tour guide 'Cousin Mitch' was extremely informative and kept my 6 year old daughter entertained. He got us to all the shows and events on time we didn't miss a thing.
The centre is full of vibrant colours and rich history and watching all the island dances during the boat pagent was amazing.

It was a long day topped off by the amazing evening show which truly took my breath away, was well worth it

Faboulous! I would recommend for families as well. Very professional; told a beautiful story; and food was 5 star.

During our honeymoon in Hawaii, we participated in a tour. Since it was both of our first time in Hawaii, we wanted to do something classic, so we were drawn to the fire dance.

The location is about an hour and a half drive from our accommodation in Waikiki, which was a bit inconvenient, but our Japanese guide provided a thorough explanation during the ride, so we were never bored.

Upon arrival, we started with a meal. It was a buffet-style setup where we could choose what we liked. The options included beef, pork, and chicken, as well as fried fish, pasta, mashed potatoes, bread, rice, salad, and fruits... a menu that everyone from adults to children could enjoy. The food was delicious, and we left feeling full.

The show began at 7:30 PM. Since I'm not very good at English, there were parts of the narration and dialogue that I didn't quite understand, but I think the overall story can be grasped while watching.

More than that, the powerful sound and the performances using human bodies were impressive.

The finale with the fire dance was truly wonderful. In the end, the audience gave a standing ovation.

We enjoyed the meal, experienced a spectacular show that we can't see in Japan, and even enjoyed the guide's sightseeing commentary during the ride (though we might have just been lucky...), so I think this participation fee is very reasonable. I would definitely recommend it to anyone visiting Hawaii for the first time.

ハネムーンでハワイに訪れた際にツアーに参加しました。
2人とも初めてのハワイだった事もあり、ベタな事がしたかったので、ファイヤーダンスに惹かれての参加です。

ロケーションは宿泊地のワイキキからは、車で一時間半くらい掛かるので不便では有りますが、行きの車内では日本人のガイドさんが、丁寧に案内してくれたので、全く退屈しませんでした。

現地に到着すると、先ずは食事です。ビュッフェ形式で好きなものを選んで食べる事が出来ます。肉はビーフ、ポーク、チキン。魚のフライやパスタ、マッシュポテト、パン、ライス、サラダ、フルーツ.....等、大人から子供まで楽しめるメニューでした。味も美味しくて、お腹いっぱいになりました。

そして、19:30からショーが始まりました。
英語が得意で無いので、ナレーションやセリフがいまいち理解できない部分が有りましたが、大まかなストーリーは観ている中でわかると思います。

それよりも、大迫力の音量と、人間の身体を使ったパフォーマンスが圧巻でした。

フィナーレのファイヤーダンスは本当に素晴らしかったです。
最後はスタンドが総立ちのスタンディングオベーションでした。

食事も楽しめて、日本では観ることの出来ない大迫力のショーを楽しみ、車内でのガイドさんの観光案内まで満喫できて(たまたま、運が良かっただけかも知れませんが.....)、この参加料はとてもお得だと思います。
初めてハワイに来る人には必ずオススメしたいです。

I participated with my mother, who is 61, and my daughter, who is 34.

When we first saw the boat, my mother was worried about the swaying, but as time went on, she had a very satisfied look on her face.

The Mai Tai Catamaran looks like a large yacht with an engine. When boarding, you go down to the shore and step directly onto the boat, so your feet (up to your knees) get wet in the sea. That was also fun.

About 40 to 50 guests, along with the captain (driver) and bartender, board at once. The clientele is about 80% Westerners, with the rest being Chinese and Japanese, and there were about 3 to 4 Japanese groups. It adds to the exotic atmosphere.

The captain and bartender speak English. By the way, the staff at the reception and the explanations during boarding are also in English, but as long as you follow the actions of those around you, you won’t have any trouble.

As you can see in the photo, the boat is completely outdoors, so it is directly affected by rain and wind. If you can ride on a nice day, you can see the beautiful sunset in Waikiki.

The drink bar on board offers unlimited drinks. I was recommended the cocktail "Mai Tai," which shares the same name as the boat, and most guests were drinking it. The alcohol content is low, and it tastes like tropical juice, so you need to be careful not to drink too much (there is no restroom on the boat). They also have non-alcoholic options, so my mother was drinking pineapple juice (from a can).

The boat trip lasts about an hour and a half. The sunset is breathtakingly beautiful, and we were even able to see a pod of dolphins in the distance. It's great for families and friends, but I highly recommend it for couples.

The price is quite reasonable compared to dinner cruises. I definitely plan to repeat this experience the next time I visit Hawaii.

母61歳、娘34歳の親子で参加しました。 

最初に船を見たとき、母は揺れを心配していましたが、何のことはない、時間が経つにつれて大満足の顔になっていました。

マイタイ・カタマラン号はエンジン付きの大型ヨットのような形をしています。乗船する際は海岸に下りて直接乗り込むので、足元（ひざ下くらい）が海に浸かって濡れます。それもまた楽しいです。 

40～50人くらいの客と、船長（運転手）、バーテンダーが一度に乗り込みます。客層は欧米人が8割、あとは中国人や日本人で、日本人は3～4組くらいでした。それも異国情緒があります。 

船長やバーテンダーは英語です。ちなみに、受付の係員や乗船時の説明も英語ですが、周りの人の行動に合わせていれば困ることはありません。

 船は写真のとおり、思いっきり屋外なので、雨風の影響を直に受けます。天気の良い日に乗ることができたら、とても美しいワイキキのサンセットを見ることができます。 

船上のドリンクバーは飲み放題です。船と同じ名前のカクテル「マイタイ」をオススメされ、ほとんどのお客さんがそれを飲んでいました。アルコール度数は低く、トロピカルジュースみたいな味なので飲みすぎに注意する必要はあります（船にトイレはありません）。ノンアルコールも置いているので、母はパイナップルジュース（缶）を飲んでいました。

1時間半くらいの船旅です。サンセットはため息が出るほど美しく、イルカの群れを遠くに見ることもできました。家族や友人ともいいですが、カップルで乗ることをぜひオススメします。

 価格もディナークルーズなどと比較するとずいぶん安価です。次回ハワイを訪れる際にも、必ずリピートしようと思っています。

I had a great time. About half of the participants were Japanese, and I heard some say that there were a lot of Japanese people today. The cruise was very beautiful and pleasant, and I had no issues with the 2 or 3 cocktails I enjoyed. The sunset was also amazing.

Actually, a few days ago there was a rain forecast, and I was considering canceling, but I'm glad I didn't. It was a bit cloudy, but the boat didn't sway much. This is a tour I would like to join again when I visit Hawaii.

楽しかったです。半分くらい日本人で、今日は日本人が多いなぁって言ってました。クルーズはとてもきれいで気持ちよかったし、カクテルも2，3杯いただく限りでは問題ありません。サンセットも最高でした。
実は、数日前から雨天予報で、キャンセルしようか迷ったのですが、キャンセルしないで良かったです。曇りがちだったけど、船はそんなに揺れませんでした。ハワイに行った際にはまた参加したいツアーです。

The first time I went with a friend.

This time, I applied for the Deluxe Special Plan for my husband, who is visiting Hawaii for the first time. The difference from the regular plan last time seems to be the seats and the ice cream during breaks, but I think the meal content is the same. There is a lot of ice cream, but it's not particularly delicious. I couldn't finish it.

The seats are close together, but I felt that being close doesn't necessarily mean it's better.

I thought it might not be necessary to choose the Deluxe option.

１度目は友人といきました。

今回は初ハワイの主人の為にデラックススペシャルプランで申込ました。
前回の普通のプランとの違いは席と休憩中のアイスクリームが付くくたいで、食事内容は変わりないと思いました。
アイスクリーム多いけど特に美味しくないです。食べきれません。
席は近くではありますが、近いから良いわけではないような気がしました。

デラックスでなくても良いように思いました。

I had the standard plan, but the meals were not great. Also, the return shuttle bus was changed at the last minute, and it was not the bus that was originally planned for only Japanese guests. We went around to various hotels, and while it took just over an hour to get there, the return trip took nearly two hours.

スタンダードプランだったのですが、食事がいまいちでした。
あと、送迎バスの帰りのバスが急遽変更され、当初予定していた日本人のみのバスではなかったため、いろんなホテルをまわり、行きは1時間少しでいけたのに、帰りは2時間近くかかりました。

My friends and I had the BEST night in Hawaii with this combo :D The drinks flowed freely (Get the shaker! TOTALLY WORTH IT!), the music was kicking, the views were awesome and the crew was on IT!

We wanted a to see the sunset and have some cocktails AND have a delicious dinner, and this fit the bill perfectly. Rather than shelling out $100 or more for a dinner cruise (basically a floating restaurant), we got to enjoy the sunset while under sail, had all of the booze we could drink (mimosas, mai tais and more!) and then had a yummy dinner that we got to grill up ourselves. Woot! Woot!

The dinner was hella tasty and it was great that we got the combo since I saw people walk up to the hostess at the restaurant and they got told that there would be an hour and a half wait. WHAT!? We checked in and got escorted right to our table. Yup! Yup!

Definitely a great choice for anyone looking to have a great island night in Waikiki~

I had made a reservation for the day I arrived in Honolulu, but due to a flight delay, I couldn't make it. When I consulted with VELTRA, they informed me that I could change my reservation for an additional fee of about $35 for the transfer. They asked me to make the change myself, but since I was unable to call locally, I conveyed that to them, and they made the change for me. However, since it was a last-minute change, they requested that I confirm it on-site. After arriving at the hotel, I called the Polynesian Cultural Center, only to find out that the change had not been communicated to them. Fortunately, there was a Japanese person who helped me, but I think it would be better if the agency provided more support in such situations.

The show was truly amazing, and I was able to sit in the deluxe section, four rows from the front! The performance was very powerful, with various stage setups, and the pacing of the story was good, making it enjoyable!

ホノルル到着当日に予約していましたが飛行機の遅延で行けなくなってしまい、VELTRAさんに相談したところ送迎代で約35ドル追加で払えば変更可能との事。変更は自分で行ってくださいとの事でしたが、現地への電話ができない状態だったのでその旨を伝えると変更してくれました。ただ直前の変更の為、最終的な確認は現地でして欲しいとのことだったので、ホテルに着いてからポリネシアン文化センターへ電話しました。すると、現地へは変更の事は伝わっていませんでした…。日本人の方だったので助かりましたが、代理店としてそこまでのフォローがあるといいと思いました。

ショーは本当に素晴らしくて、デラックスで前から4番目の席で見る事が出来ました！迫力がとてもあり、ステージもいろいろな仕掛けがあり、話の展開のテンポも良いので楽しめると思います！

I participated in a two-hour all-you-can-drink sunset cruise. With good music playing, I enjoyed the beautiful scenery and the lovely atmosphere! I wanted to drink a lot and soak in the ambiance, but unfortunately, this boat doesn't have a restroom... While there were plenty of elements to enjoy without drinking, it was a bit disappointing not to be able to drink much due to the lack of a restroom, especially since it was an all-you-can-drink option. However, the sunset was so breathtaking that it made me forget about that. Witnessing the moment the sun sets from the boat was incredibly romantic! I joined with two female friends, but I think this tour is perfect for couples and newlyweds. I highly recommend it! I'm glad I could participate without feeling seasick and had a great time.

２時間飲み放題のサンセットクルーズに参加しました。
良い感じの音楽とともに綺麗な景色を眺め、素敵な雰囲気！！
お酒を沢山飲んでこの雰囲気に酔いしれた～いと思ったのですが、この船トイレが無いんですね・・・。
お酒飲まなくても酔いしれる要素は充分にありましたが、せっかくの飲み放題なのにトイレが無いことによってあまり飲めないのはやや残念でした。
でも、そんなことを忘れさせてくれるかのようなサンセットは絶景です。
陽が沈んでいく瞬間を船上で拝めるなんて、何ともロマンティック！！
私は友人(女２人)と参加しましたが、カップルや新婚さんにはもってこいのツアーだと思いました。オススメです！！
船酔いもなく、楽しく参加できて良かったです。

I opted for the buffet style, and the food was delicious. I was able to talk with the people around me, the hula was great, and the show featuring Elvis was cool, with wonderful singing. Of course, Lady Gaga and Michael Jackson were also amazing.

ビュッフェ形式にしましたが、料理も美味しかったし、周りの人達とも話せたしフラも良かったし、ショーもエルビスが格好良かったのと歌もすばらしかったです。
勿論、ガガ、マイケルジャクソンも最高でしたよ。

We decided to do this on our honeymoon and we were really glad we did !! They picked us up at our hotel and then dropped us off when it was over. Make sure you add this option as you will enjoy a few drinks and don't want to be driving back and it's far better than a cab!

The cruise itself was fantastic. Calm waters and a leisurely pace out and back all the way past diamond head watching the sun set over the city and Waikiki it was amazingly beautiful. The dinner was very good and the bartender and crew were all friendly fun and professional. I would do this every time I visit Waikiki without question!!

Today, the wind was strong, and we had the main sail set to one point reef (reefed sail), but as expected from a catamaran yacht, we were able to enjoy the sunset comfortably without heeling. Also, the drinks inside were all-you-can-drink, which might be great for a first round of drinks with friends! I would like to use this service again.

本日は風が強くメインセールは１ポイントリーフ（縮帆）でしたがさすがカタマランヨット、ヒールする事もなく快適にサンセットを楽しむ事ができました。また中での酒は飲み放題で友人との飲み会の一次会にも良いかな！？また利用したいと思います。

The atmosphere was great and the food was scrumptious. You cannot beat the open bar and the Mai Tai where the best I have ever had.

It goes without saying, the food was INCREDIBLE! An all you can eat buffet of delicious Hawaiian delicacies? Yes please, sign me up! The dances at the end was really great too. So awesome to get to know a little more about the island, its history and to see all those amazing performers move about the stage. My only suggestion would be to not eat all day and save yourself for this experience. There are so many varieties of food to partake, you're gonna need a completely empty stomach to have it all. Enjoy!

I had seen many luau shows before, so I thought it would be just okay... but I was completely blown away. It was moving! Amazing! Unbelievably impressive! Just this show alone was worth the trip from Japan. I absolutely recommend it!! I want to participate again more than once. The buffet was also good!! Let's understand the alcohol-free option.

何度もルアウショーを見ていたので、そんなもんか・・・てな気持ちを打ち砕かれました。感激！感嘆！アンビリーバボウ感動！このショーだけで、日本から来た価値ありです。絶対お薦め！！もう一度以上参加したいと思います。ビュフェもOK！！アルコール抜きは理解しましょう。

It was a great experience, from our pick up at Waikiki to the Pier.
Everything was better than I expected, the bus had plenty of space, and the ride was smooth.
When we got to the pier we only waited for 10 minutes in order to be inside the boat.
My wife and I wanted to have a good time, since we are newlyweds and we were spending our honeymoon in Hawaii.
The food was delicious and the bartender was one of the best in Hawaii, will never forget the High Tide, it really made my night better.
It was a romantic night and the crew made the best they could in order to make us feel comfortable.
I wish to go back again in my next trip to Hawaii.
Aloha!

I recommend arriving early at the meeting place since seating is done in the order of arrival. Even if you get there early, there will be juice available, so you can drink and chat, and time will pass quickly. We were about five groups back, but we ended up with seats at the very front. There will be a commemorative photo taken before seating, but the sales will be in front of the restroom later, so you don't have to purchase it. We bought one for the memories, though (laughs). The food and drinks are plentiful. The show is enjoyable, and the staff is friendly. They also provide blankets for cold weather. Dressing up adds to the fun. Since it was fully booked, I think making a reservation early is a good idea. I believe even the lower class of Grey is sufficient.

並んだ順に着席するので、早めに集合場所へ行く事をお勧めします。
早く行っても、ジュースの用意があるので、飲んでおしゃべりしていると時間はすぐに過ぎます。
5組くらい前にいましたが、私達は一番前の席になりました。
着席前に記念撮影がありますが、販売は後ほどトイレ前なので、購入はしなくても大丈夫です。
私達は思い出に買いましたが（笑）
お食事も飲み物も充実しております。
ショウも楽しく、スタッフもフレンドリーです。
寒さ対策のひざ掛けも配布してくれます。
おしゃれをして参加すると楽しさ倍増です。
満席でしたので、早めの予約が良いと思います。
グレイどの高いクラスでなくても十分だと思います。

The tour I participated in started in the evening with entry to the Polynesian Cultural Center, followed by a buffet dinner and a show. We were supposed to meet at the pickup location around 4 PM, but there were many guests from other tour options, and it took a while to find our guide. However, our guide eventually spotted us, and we set off!

The Polynesian Cultural Center is on the opposite side of the island from Waikiki, so it took about an hour and a half to get there. Along the way, our lively guide, who lives in Hawaii, kept us entertained with fun stories, so we arrived at our destination without getting bored!

Once we arrived at the Polynesian Cultural Center, we enjoyed a buffet in a huge dining hall! It seemed that the meal options varied depending on the grade of the package you chose, but the standard option was more than satisfactory!

After the meal, we browsed a souvenir shop before heading to the show. Finally, we got to enjoy the much-anticipated show, "Hā: Breath of Life." I won't spoil the content here, but it had a storyline, and the intensity of the finale was simply overwhelming! I think you can enjoy the show well from any seat.

Since it's far from Waikiki, I recommend this tour for those who have some time to spare!

今回参加したツアーは夕方からポリネシア文化センターへ入場し、ビュッフェを食べて、ショーを見るというもの。
午後4時過ぎにピックアップ場所で待ち合わせだったのですが他のオプションツアーのお客さんがたくさんいてなかなかガイドさん？と会えませんでしたが、なんとかガイドさんが私たちを見つけてくれて出発！！
ポリネシア文化センターはワイキキからは島の反対側なので1時半くらいかかったのですが、道中はハワイ在住の元気なガイドさんがとても楽しいお話で盛り上げてくれたので退屈することなく目的地に到着！
ポリネシア文化センターに到着後は超巨大な食堂でブュッフェを頂きました！申し込むグレードによって食事の内容が変わるみたいでしたが、スタンダードで充分満足することがでしました！！！
食事の後は少しお土産屋さんを見ながらショーの会場へ。
そして待ちに待ったショー、'ハァ'ブレス・オブ・ライフを鑑賞しました！内容についてはネタバレになってしまうのでここでは書きませんが、ストーリー性もありとにかくラストの迫力がすごくてただただ圧倒されてしまいました！！！！席はとこからでも良く鑑賞できると思います。

ワイキキから遠いので時間に余裕がある方にはオススメのツアーです！

It was just the two of us participating with a friend. At first, I was a bit anxious since we were the only Japanese people there, but there were no problems at all. The bus ride seemed like a sightseeing shuttle, and if you understand a little English, you can enjoy it. I've seen various Hawaiian shows before, but this one was quite fun. Participating in the evening and being able to return to the hotel around 9 PM is also appealing. If you have no plans in the evening, I definitely recommend going!

友達と二人参加でした。
日本人が、私たちしかいなく最初不安になりましたが、なんの問題も有りませんでした。
行きのバスは、観光付きの送迎のようで、多少英語が分かれば楽しめます。
ハワイアンショーも今まで色々のもの見てますが、かなり楽しいです。
夕方からの参加で、程よい９時頃ホテルに戻れるのも魅力です。
夕方から予定がないなら、ぜひいったほうがいいですよ。

This was the last event of our three week vacation in Hawaii and what a way to end it! It had great food, outstanding service and dazzling pagentry! There were many handsome Kane and beutiful Wahine! The show provided and outstanding story of Hawaii and its history. Mahalo!!

I Had such a wonderful time will defintily do it again if i get the chance took my mom to hawaii for her birthday n suprised her with this awesome cruise wonderful meal A whole lobster n steak!! Purple bread was awesome wonderful soo so entertaining they singed happy birthday to ny mom too was soo fun

I Had such a wonderful time will defintily do it again if i get the chance took my mom to hawaii for her birthday n suprised her with this awesome cruise wonderful meal crab legs and steak!! N fireWorks at the end of the night was great too

This was our second time for this particular luau. (We obviously liked it the first time also) The food was as good as we remembered from our previous trip ( 2 years ago ) and the entertainment took a big step forward with both the dancers and the master of ceremonies . Had a great time!

I attended this luau as a child and was even better than I remembered. Everyone we so nice the food we great. The show incredible, we loved every minute of the Luau!

We spent an evening aboard the Makani during our honeymoon... What a great decision it was!!! The staff was very friendly, you truly can tell that they enjoy their jobs and want to have their guests to have the best time possible. Our cruise may have had 20 other guess on board. They could have easily fit 2x that many so it was not crowded. The Bartender named Stretch mixes some delicious drinks, and they are STRONG :) Food was much better then expected. We enjoyed a beef stir fry, sushi wraps, egg rolls, teriyaki chicken, salad, white rice, cookies and more. The scenery was extremely romantic and a perfect evening during our honeymoon!! Special note: Bring camera and selfie stick. Alot of people aboard our boat didn't have one and said that is one thing theyd bring next time

My wife and I participated together. The course I chose involved dining outside before watching the show, but even during our meal, the hula dancers we saw before entertained us by coming around the tables to sing and dance. The staff was also very hospitable, making it enjoyable even before the show started. The location was easy to find on the 4th floor of the Royal Hawaiian Center, and of course, the show was fantastic.

家内と二人で参加しました。私が選んだｺｰｽは、外で食事をしてからｼｮｰを見るものでしたが、食事の前に見たﾌﾗﾀﾞﾝｽの人たちが食事中もﾃｰﾌﾞﾙを回って歌や踊りを見せてくれたり、ｽﾀｯﾌもﾎｽﾋﾟﾀﾘﾃｨ溢れていて、ｼｮｰを見る前から楽しめます。場所もﾛﾔﾙﾊﾜｲｱﾝｾﾝﾀｰ４階と分かり易く、勿論ｼｮｰも最高でした。

I entered the restaurant at 6:30 PM and enjoyed dinner on the terrace while chatting with a Japanese person at the next table. The food was just average; it wasn't particularly delicious or bad. However, incorporating hula into the experience made it truly enjoyable. So, the food didn't really matter. From 8:00 PM, there was a fun showtime featuring well-structured performances with songs and dances from Gaga, Michael, and Elvis. It was seriously fun! At the end, we took a photo together, which became a nice memory. Thank you! The Elvis impersonator and the photo with my daughter were great.

18：30に入店し、テラスでディナーをしていると相席の日本人の方とお話しながら、お食事を進めました。お食事は　まぁ普通で特に美味しいとかまずいとかはないです。でも、フラを間に取り入れてくれて本当に楽しい時間でした。だから、食事はどうでもよかったです。２０：００からは楽しいショウータイムで、ガガ、マイケル、エルビスと歌に踊りにフラによく構成された内容でした。マジ！！楽しかったです。最後は　写真を一緒に撮ってくれて、思い出になりました。サンキュー♪　エルビスのそっくりさん、娘とのフォトGOODでしたよ。

I thought the event might be canceled because it was raining quite heavily by the meeting time, but we set sail 30 minutes late in light rain. There were only two Japanese families, including us; the rest were all foreigners. Mai Tai was served, and we all toasted together. Mixing with the cheerful foreigners and aided by the drinks, we ended up having quite a bit of fun. Although the enjoyment of sipping cocktails while watching the setting sun was somewhat diminished, the rain stopped, and we were treated to a beautiful double rainbow, so it turned out well.

集合時間になっても結構強い雨が降っていたので中止になるのかと思っていましたが、30分遅れで小雨の中を出航。日本人は私たちともう1家族だけで後はすべて外国人でした。マイタイがサーブされてみんなで乾杯。陽気な外国人に混ざって、酔いも手伝って結構はしゃいでしまいました。沈みゆく夕日を見ながらカクテルをという楽しみは半減しましたが、雨がやんでダブルの虹がきれいに見えていたので良しとしました。
