Our tour guide- Kalia- he was a combination of Superman, McGyver, Jack Bauer and Indiana Jones- he told us story after story of things that he had done/seen and the dude is amazing. He'll be in a future episode in one of Jeff Corwin's shows where they cooked their food over this exact fire pit!!
Taro fields- our tour guide was also on an episode of "Dirty Jobs" and I guess Mike Rowe got so messed up doing this that they had to cut the episode short cuz he couldn't move his arms.
For those of you who really know me know that I hate swimming in water with other things so it was a really big deal to get the snorkeling gear on and swim out in the ocean- I did get far enough out to see a sea turtle!!!
Hale o Keawe (wooden images) stand watch over the reconstruction of a temple and mausoleum which housed the bones of 23 ali'i. Offerings were placed on the tower.
According to legend, Queen Ka'ahumanu, favorite wife of Kamehameha I, once swam a great distance to the pu'uhonua after a quarrel with her husband. She hid under this stone but the barking of her dog gave her away. Her husband soon found her and they soon made up.
Last night of dinner- right before heading down Ben got something in his eye so he didn't stick around- he went to bed (it was even his birthday for pete's sake) :(
They had a luau and program for us- it was called "The Gathering of the 4 Kings"
This is the king of Samoa
