Polynesian Cultural Center

We spent a full day at the PCC. It was fun to learn about all the different islands and the different cultures of each section. We saw the show "HA. The Breath of Life" and it was amazing. Especially the fire dancers - they rocked. And the guys were so ripped it was crazy. The live music and dancing was so much fun but I got lost a few times in the story line since it was all spoken in the native tongue - but I got the basics and really enjoyed the show.


We started off with a canoe tour.

My dad trying out fishing in "Tahiti" - he didn't catch anything.

Todd tasting poi in "Hawaii"

Watching the canoe show at 2:30 in the afternoon was unbearably hot - we were dripping with sweat. Thank goodness the other shows all had shade.

The "Samoa" show was one of my favorites. This guy was hilarious. He showed us how to husk and break open a coconut and how to make coconut milk.

They climb the trees with nothing but their feet tied together - it was crazy.

At the dinner luau


The pig in the ground (kinda looks nasty to me) good thing I didn't see this until after dinner.


This was one of the best pina colada drink I've ever tasted and it was in such a fun pineapple cup.



I love the huge tiki men and the faces the boys are making. Classic.
