Dance, Song, and Inspirational Message

This past weekend was one to remember.

It started on Friday evening when Vynn and I were fortunate enough to have been sitting in front of the tv channel surfing and come across the 89th Annual Kamehameha Schools Song Contest. It definitely was one of those "lucky we live Hawaii" type of moments! In this years contest, the students celebrated the music of John Kameaaloha Alameida. I guess the fact that I don't remember who the winners were of each division says something about how much that part of it mattered to me...but I do remember that the Sophomore class were my favorites and the Hoike was very entertaining. Vynn and I were very enlightened after the program.

The Tahiti Fete in Honolulu took place this past weekend, and from what I hear is the largest Tahitian dance competition in the state. Of course, naturally we were rooting for Big Island ---congratulations MERAHI Productions!! I heard they did great!

One thing that me and Warren were fortunate enough to do is see Nick Vujicic at the Sangha Hall in Hilo. Although he was born with no arms or no legs, he truly is one giant of a man! His life is truly not only about living without limbs, but living WITHOUT LIMITS!

In his message he mention that the largest crowd he has spoken to was 110,000, so we in Hilo were very blessed to have had a visit from this man. The turnout was very good though. The Sangha Hall was packed to the gills. I estimate that there were at least 1000 people there. Not bad for Hilo!
