Polynesian Culture Center, October 30th

This was by far my favorite day. I enjoyed being with the family so much at the PCC. It was the family that made it fun. Elika & family, Maacapi & family, Grandma & Trusilla, Laa'i & Jarrett, Faanu and us all together was what made it fun. We visited villages, took a canoe ride, ate at the buffet and attended the night show. The kids tried to learn fire knife dancing. Taela & Rhita demonstrated samoan dancing. Kailer & Jarret tried tahitian dancing. They all tried the mawarii poi balls. Taela actually acquired a pair and practiced all the way back to Utah.

Later that night was a highlight of our trip. We went on a Haunted Lagoon Ride. The PCC turned the lagoon into a spooky haunted lagoon. We all loaded onto a large canoe and listened to Laa'i scream the entire time. The kids were spooked but it was good for them. Especially since Kailer had a Halloween phobia this year. I think it help him to face his fears. Even if I forced him.
