Omg! My husband found me in this video. I was just 10 or 11 years old with my classmates, Aunty Diana Aki & Aunty Mona Kahele at Pu'u Honua O' Honaunau. Great childhood memories ❤ love it 😊
Lived on Big Island, Hilo+Puna side '88-2005. Spent lots of great times on Kona side too. Hapuna, 69 beach, City of Refuge, Magic Sands, Keahou Beach Hotel( lots of great bands played there) so many memories. Aloha Nui Loa.
Mahalo nui loa to King David Kalakaua for allowing hula to remain and flourish, since the missionaries and even King Kamehameha were attempting to ban hula, a very important aspect of Hawaiian culture. The flourishing Merrie Monarch hula festival held in Hilo, Hawaii was named after King Kalakaua. Because of his enthusiasm in preserving hula. Aloha
