I was in the kitchen for most of the night and got a picture of the motorcade as they left the restaurant on King St, as they headed home. It was great to have the President in the house again. It is always a surreal experience with all of the attention and security around, it never tires and it's still like being in the movies.  I am happy he got back to the islands to spend time with his family again.  I think Hawaii is a special place, a healing place, full of positive energies,  a great place to recharge your batteries and get grounded again. I hope he gets some well-deserved rest and healing for the upcoming year.  It is always an honor and a privilege to have him in the house for dinner again.  He came into the restaurant to a standing ovation, people clapping. That gave us chicken skin, again still.
