Beat of Hawaii was at the Kauai Museum today for their 28th Annual Lei Day Celebration. I hope you like our pictures of some of the contest winners. It turned out to be a beautiful day of flowers, music, dance and Aloha.
Our tradition is to make straw leis and send them to loved ones on the mainland this time of year. They’re easy to make and take about an hour. Our first newsletter on Monday will have the directions.
Is this post sounding similar to yesterday’s? Working late, Jeff accidentally deleted that post (a first). Rather than publish it again, we’ve decided to combine it with today’s.
The 81st Lei Day Festival on Oahu was a huge success. They created the world’s longest fresh flower lei, over a mile long, and will now be in the Guinness Book of World Records.
More Lei Day events are scheduled this weekend.
