Hong Kong International Hula Association Newsletter October 2008

Hawaiian Family Day
 
  
  
Participants gathered to learn how to make lei from freshly imported flowers for themselves and their loved ones on the Hawaiian Family Day.
 
Wearing their lei, families and friends of HKIHA danced to the tune of the song "A Plumeria Lei".  The day ended with sharing of own Hawaiian experience with each another.  A few guests learnt about the beauty of hula for the first time and could not wait to enroll in the upcoming classes. 
 
    

Annual Dinner
 
  
 

Members and friends savoured Hawaiian food served luau style at the annual dinner of the HKIHA, held on the 26th October.  Participants were treated with Kalua pig, papaya salad, fresh pineapple, fish fillet with macademia nut sauce, tropical fruit punch and other mouth-watering dishes.  

Participants also enjoyed a polynesian show video and Hawaiian music during the evening.  We particularly welcome Lily and Kitty, our International Members from Toronto and New York, who joint us at this special annual event.

A Plumeria Lei (lyrics)
 
I make a lei
From the flowers and the trees
A plumeria lei
For you from me
It means I love you
Cause I really do
Here is my lei
From me to you
