TUESDAY - WAR MUSEUM & LUAU

We had a late start today and then caught the $2 trolley to the War Museum.  Here we spent more than 2 hours viewing the exhibits and learning about Hawaii's history and its involvement in WWII.
From there we returned to the hotel to meet the tour bus for the Hawaiian Luau at Paradise Cove.
We were greeted with leis of fresh flowers and a Mai Tai before joining in a variety of traditional Hawaiian activities.
We all tried spear throwing and we girls also plaited palm leaves to make bracelets and head bands adorned with frangipani and fresh flowers.
Dinner was a buffet that included roast pork that had been cooked in the pit.
The after dinner  entertainment was excellent with Polynesian dancing and fire throwing.
It was a great night!
