A Day of Bliss

Before leaving Canada, I decided to book a treatment for myself at the spa in Hawaii~ (Thanks to Paul and Shayla). After much research and reading reviews on Trip Advisor, the place I thought my tired old soul could use some pampering was Paul Brown's Spa Olakino Spa. I arrived to be greeted by wonderful service and shown prompting to my waiting area. Within minutes my masseuse, named Zach welcomed me in for the beginning of my Na Lani Mea ( Heavenly Things) Signature Spa Package. I was treated to a Lomi Lomi Massage and have to admit, at first things were not going so well. Over the years, I have indulged in many massages, but never had I been given a massage by a man. Let me clarify; by a total stranger who is a man that I am in the buff, uner the sheerest of blankets. I thought I was at least hiding my uneasiness around him. Then as he stopped for a brief moment, Zach remarked that it is only natural to feel uncomfortable around a strange man who is giving me a massage, but that I needed to relax in order to fully received the benefits of the treatment. Afterwards, I was much more at ease and appreciated his professionalism. Next, I was treated to an hour Aromatherapy facial by a lovely lady named Tiffany. I fell alseep several times, but was awoken by my stomach growls and vibrations from my deep snoring. After my treatments were complete, I was brought to a bay window sitting area where I was to relax and take in the peaceful ocean scenery. As I sipped my Chai tea, I reflected on my soothing day. Suddenly my tranquility was broken by a tall, older gentleman sporting a very unflattering banana thong. He seemed oblivious to the stares and giggles as he strutted along the beach taking snapshots of random things. His chest was puffed out, much like a bloated puffer fish, but instead of spines, they were replaced with a mass of chest hair that seemed to flow endlessly and stick out. While others may have snickered, I had to admire a man with that much confidence. Besides, after my royal treatment and exposing my own beauty flaws to two total strangers...who was I to comment on someone who clearly idolizes the Hoff.
