Kapolei, the Beacon for the West

Got there  before seven and I thought I was there too early. But there were plenty people already there and I could see the cars rolling in looking for parking. I got a couple of photos of the beginnings.

On the left people helping to set up the Kau Kau, and on the right
people just being there which is important too.

Met with the President Nora Dionisio and presented her with the CDs going to their key people. Went around and said my Alohas. Checked with Willy and Tim and there are so many nice people way out here in the West.

Augusto was throwing down his beautiful Christmas  music and the Dance was starting to roll with the appropriate styles and there was good dancing until close to eight. I decided to let Willy and Tim get the dancing photos and for sure we will have some to post in the next blog.

Talking story on the side, Mark and Susan in the foreground and then the Ring Of Prayer.

We give thanks for being the lucky ones.

The Kau Kau just waiting for this terrific bunch of people.

The Christmas music continued to keep us all in the Christmas spirit and the people were enjoying their meal. This was followed by another round of good dancing. We are probably going to need more than one more blog to include all the photos I expect to get. Of course, this blog is where you get the hits.

The folks enjoying the Ono grinz, on the far and the near sides, listening to some nice music.

And finally got one where I could identify and get the names

Tinoy Agcaoili, Nieves Cubero, Jean Leano, Rubelyn Lucas, Ernesto Leano,

Connie Cubero and Tim Cubero Jr. Yes, I know, I shoulda got mo da kine.

The line dancers, one of the biggest groups on this Island and led by DJ Augusto. There seems to be an addition of one or two more gentlemen everytime. So this is the place for line dancing men. And believe me some of them are very good. Of course most of the ladies are good too

And what is even more good about it is that they all have the same step routine, but the styling is so different and so gratifying. No clones, just beautiful to watch, it can be a terrific spectator experience.I left twenty minutes early to get the last C bus at the Transit Center at 9:30. I biked it in ten minutes but now I know this short cut and it is easy. Was home by ten, not bad.
