DEF LEPPARD IN CONCERT

DEF LEPPARD IN CONCERT
HONOLULU, HAWAII

I love 80's Rock n' Roll.  Cannot forget the music of my youth and when Def Leppard announced a Hawaii concert I secured tickets within minutes of going on sale.  Was great to see kids, adults, families and 80's Rockers filling the Neil Blaisdel Center in Honolulu to capacity.  The crowd was older but never sat down the entire concert.  People were rocking, singing and enjoying good old Rock n' Roll.  Loved it!!!!!

FRESH FISH TACOS

FRESH FISH TACOS
DINNER AT HOME

These were probably some of the best Fish Tacos that I have ever had.  Better than many in Mexico, California and Hawaii.  Prepared them with Fresh Blue Marlin lightly coated in Cajun Spices.  Grilled the Marlin and placed on a grilled Corn Tortilla with Cabbage, Pico de Gallo, Cheese, Cilantro and a White Sauce consisting of equal parts Plain Yogurt and Mayonnaise with Lime Juice and Oregano.  Added a bit of Hot Sauce too for kick.  Absolutely delicious!

DINNER AT HOME

Bought some super fresh Kajiki (Blue Marlin) and coated it with Cajun Seasoning.  Grilled it up and placed it in a grilled Flour Tortilla with Shredded Cabbage, Cheese, Pico de Gallo, Cilantro and a sauce make up of Plain Yogurt, Mayonnaise, Lime Juice and Oregano.  These Burritos were delicious.  The White Sauce really takes them to another level and the Fresh Fish is key.

Enjoyed a great two night stay on the campus of Duke University.  The Washington Duke Inn and Golf Club is actually right on the campus.  Loved the look and feel of this hotel and property.  Bars and restaurants were filled with Duke students and alumni and the place was packed both nights.  Service was good but could be better.  This is just probably because the place was busy.  Food was excellent.  This is the type of hotel I like to relax at.  Old school with a bit of class but very comfortable and unpretentious.  Everything from golf shorts and t-shirts to suits which I like.
Golf course is beautiful but man the rough is deep and thick here.  Your ball can be right in front of you and you cannot see it because it is buried.  The Starter even warned me not to spend too much time looking for balls in the rough.  Impossible to find he said.  He was right.  Keep it in the fairway if you can!
