Thursday, Dec. 22, 2022 - Polynesian Cultural Center

 Today the Monroes started off the day by going to Waimea Falls while we worked, it is a nice hike, ending with a nice swim at the Falls.



Then we all went to the PCC- 


(The guys in the back is Lee Young- they had Tanner & Kaden as MTC teachers, used to live below us for 1 month, and work at the PCC.) He arranged for us to have a great tour guide- Madison (Maddie) Johnson. She is from Antioch and  their family was good friends with Layne’s family. She just returned from her mission and is working at the PCC.




Usually when o people come to visit the PCC, we will start going to the islands with them, then we will work for just a short time at the luau taking tickets, then join them for dinner and the night show. That is why we are wearing our Hawaiian outfits.
We had fun  at the island programs…and doing the game or craft they have. Here we are doing the stick game:
And the spear toss…

In the island of Samoa we learned how to weave fish out of coconut leaves…

On to the island of Fiji, where we all got to not only choose our tattoo, but choose where to place it as well…..Ashlyn and I chose our ankles
Austin wanted it around his neck, but then wasn’t happy with the way it looked….

Devo got his down one side of his face, others got them around their arms!!!

After the islands comes dinner at the Luau….everyone gets a lei to start…

Then my favorite part….the drinks in a pineapple…so good!

They have a whole program where they bring out the pig that has been cooking all day. They have songs, and dancing, etc. then you go to the buffet to eat as much as you want! After you are totally stuffed you head to the evening show…Ha, the Breath of Life.
It is always a great time at the PCC !!!!
