Okay I am so bummed today is not a day that I live in Hawaii! Today is the day that all the school children have prepared a hula, dance or such to share in front of the school. The morning is spent with this royal introduction of the King and Queen of the Islands and every island is represented by a couple wearing the island flowers and colors. It truly is magical and amazing. The lei making contest is today. By the way, I won that a few times as I am really good at haku leis.
It is so vivid in my memories that I can remember doing Pu'pu Hino Hino with cowry shells in first grade. It is an afternoon of field day activites and popsicles to conclude the day.
These are the moments, I wish I was raising my family on the islands so they would appreciate and understand the rich culture of Hawaii.
Happy May Day!
