I knew that as soon as I saw that line in the show description that they wouldn't let you take any pictures. I guess they consider picture taking to be like robbing them of their catalog sales. We should steal a catalog from the gift shop and post it online just to show them greedy bastards! Stealing is part of our Tiki heritage. Just pretend it's an old Don the Beachcomber menu. Buzzy Out!
