icicle shaped figures, glowing crystal beams, and colorful lasers that lit up the night sky. The greatest thing about this stage was feeling the cement under your feet, instead of mud.

As the sun set in the west, the warmth of the sun diminished further; Leaving us even colder than we were before. Dan and I…
everything. The inside was smooth and was shredded to be used for desserts, milk, water, and even for your hair. The oil from the coconuts acted like an expensive conditioner that I would use back at home. I always wondered why Hawaiians had such luscious hair, but now it all makes sense. My snacks consisted of guava and pineapple. The fresh fish, such as mahi-mahi, was a delectable and different treat. My body felt so refreshing and cleansed, like I was on a natural diet.

Although that is true, hula is actually much more than entertaining and remembering different techniques of moves, but properly understanding the stories behind them.
