These pictures are from a few days ago, but we couldn't figure out how to download them from Brett's camera.
On Wednesday night we went to the Island Breeze Lu'au at the King Kamehameha Hotel. It was a great experience. The only glitch for me was that while the narrator was a really dynamic voice, I could only understand about 50% of what he said; his Hawaiian accent was very thick. We sat at long tables. The food was buffet style. Before dinner we wandered around the sacred grounds - there was live music, hula dancing lessons, a royal procession from the beach, a ceremony uncovering our pork which had been cooked in a pit lined with rocks
and lots of mai tais.

We figured out we're going to support ourselves while living in Hawaii - we're going to employ the kids as hula dancers. They LOVED dancing. They spent most of two hours on the side of the dinner area dancing and running around. There was even a little cabana at the back that had a stage where they performed.

Glad to see that all their practice at performing in their bedrooms has finally come to fruition in a "real" performance! Too bad you guys have to come home.........
