Kaipo works the site and told us all about the canoe. They are refinishing the canoe and hope to sail it again in 2024.

Polynesian compass showing directions made of stone with the words indicating the direction. They use no GPS, no compasses, or no sextant, and they get where they need to go using the sun, moon, stars and birds to guide them. 

                 Here it is on the ocean.

  Samoan flag raising

Today is the annual Samoan Devotional held in the Samoa Village at the Polynesian Cultural Center.  In the first picture you will see John (Sione) Milford conducting. You may not know that he became the Village Chief of Samoa after the passing of Tipa Galeai. Behind him you will see Jarod Hester and his wife, then Delsa Moe and Steve Laulu. (Can't really see us, but we're on the front row next to the guy in the pink shirt.🙂)
