dinner at Kenichi Pacific

We decided to hire a local babysitter through an agency last night. It was a bit weird to leave Tesla with essentially a stranger in our hotel room, but the agency has been around and is apparently well-used, so we went for it. And yes, it was lovely to have some couple time! We initallly thought 8-12, but since arriving, we'd been on Tesla's early snooze, early rise schedule, so we changed it to 7-11...and we barely stayed awake!

Nevertheless, we had a nice cocktail, then super delicious dinner at Kenichi Pacific, the perfect Asian fusion I'd been wanting to try here. We had a miso-glazed fish appetizer, then shared ono tataki with yam puree (that tasted like apple and pork when combined), and tuna wrapped in nori and panko with a sweet white miso sauce. Totally hit the spot, and with sake, and no toddler to run after, we enjoyed our meal! Then we went to our hotel's ocean-view bar, then later met up with the wedding crowd. We cheered to finally meet up with everyone since it just hasn't been possible to hang out at night with everyone.

Today is the wedding, starting at 3pm : ) We're going to attempt to bring the hotel's fold-up crib and see if Tesla will let us stay long at the post-wedding party...
