Hula Dancers in Kaanapali

Since it was my parents first time to Hawaii we wanted to make sure they got to go to a Luau or see some Hula dancers. Everyone was not too excited to pay $100 per person for a traditional Luau so we went to see a FREE Hula show at Whalers Village in Kaanapali. It was a beautiful drive but kind of a long one. Both girls were a bit grumpy in the car, and we forgot the diaper bag, so I was a bit grumpy and thinking some things are worth paying for, how great is this FREE show going to be? Boy was I wrong. It was an awesome show and we were in the third row so the girls could see everything. Everyone loved it, and it still amazes the way the dancers can move. I love seeing all of the beautiful costumes and dancers. The dancers were mostly kids so it was fun to see them, they are so talented! The fire dancer was awesome and Allie could not get over him "eating" the fire. Geoff got an awesome picture of him! Paige was not too sure about the fire and her little heart was beating like it was on the 4th of July. She is not too crazy about fire! We went back on Saturday with the whole gang to see another show and it was really good too. We ran in to the Gantenbein family so it was fun to see familiar faces! At the end of the show, the dancers greeted everyone int the audience so Allison was excited about that.














Allie wanted to wear grass skirt to the hula show so of course we found the perfect one at the ABC store the day before. When we took it out of the package for her to try on she said "Oh I love it, and it even has real boob hangers". She shook her little bon-bon and did a dance but then decided she did not want to wear it to the show. Paige was looking at her like, what in the world is going on?
