Memorial Day 2012

With not being in the mood to go very far, we opted to spend Memorial Day by touring the Polynesian Cultural Center and remembering our ancestors.

It was a hot day. Of course we didn't get to PCC till lunch and everyone was hungry. After eating, we were ready to begin.


 Randy had actually not been to PCC since we've been back to Hawaii.


He's such a good big brother.


We always start with the canoe show.


It's fun to watch. It reminds me of my days of when I worked at PCC and shook my (not so small)booty.


We hit up the motherland village first and watched the show at the Tongan village. If you notice, my family is trying to learn the ma'ulu'ulu. 


This guy was fun. It's fun to listen to what they say in Tongan. If the tourists only knew.

Friends in the Tongan village helped my kids with their weaving. It's actually a fish that Jace is holding.


This is a new feature at the PCC. The kids loved it! 

This is one of the favorite spots. It's at the Tahitian village. The kids love to try and catch a fish from the lagoon.

We got lucky this time ---- looks like it's fish for dinner tonight.




The rest of day was spent roaming the villages and doing the activities they have. If you ever get to visit Hawaii, this needs to be #1 on your list of places to see.
