Stan, Good evening my friend! I really like how the shadows are casted on the walls on each side. The design is very pretty and I was proud, I guessed what they were right away!

Hi, Donna ... and thank you so much for your gracious and kind responses, for which I am always grateful! This resort is just a mind-boggling beauty, and we were there at a restaurant that is called 'Tidepools' which is nearly surrounded by pools of koi fish, swans, and a waterfall coming off a cliff to its right ... and fabulous food and service!! We took by sister and brother-in-law there as their Christmas gift as they will be on the mainland with my youngest sister over the holidays!! Many thanks again, Donna!! Much Aloha, Stan
