You can feel the excitement in the air, it's "Moloka'i Time!" Or the "Big Dance" as our lovable Coach Cy has so fondly called it over the years.
How blessed we are to live in this place called Hawai'i.
How blessed it is to be able to spend a fleeting weekend amongst people who embody a glimpse of yesteryear and the true "Aloha Spirit."
The people of Moloka'i are one special lot.
While on "The Friendly Island" breathe in the air of people who will smile and wave at you, as if to allow us a glimpse for the brief time we are there, of the way it used to be throughout the entire island chain.
In the past, when time and opportunity permitted, the ocean vista of Kalaupapa is so incredibly breathtaking as to make my eyes well up with tears of joy. If you've never been to the lookout, it's sheer beauty unparalleled.
To our twenty NHCC wahine paddlers who will be flying to, and paddling back from one island to another, and amongst sisters from here and around the world, GodSpeed!
Stay Safe, Stay Strong!
C'ya on the Beach at Waikiki this Sunday afternoon!
