Aloha! As a local resident, I've only walked through 'Aulani, hoping one day, I'll find the funds to stay on property. Since I live in Hawaii, it makes more sense for me to travel and invest in a trip to the Disneyland Resort instead. I'm glad you both not only had a chance to return to this special resort post Covid, but the motive to also share your magical island experience to viewers like myself so we could be there with you in some way. Thank you for your care, honesty and, kindness while vlogging and during your stay in my home state. I hope to bump into both of you on my trip to CA this summer. Mahalo and a hui hou.

I had a room overlooking the Luau in May so we watched it about 3 times. But I have to say, the experience at the Polynesian Cultural Center was better. The Luau was really nice. Food was great. Entertainment was great. The only thing no alcohol. But the drink served in the pineapple was soooooo good. Then there is an evening show after the Luau that is crazy good. Shows all the Polynesian cultures and the fire show is so good. And did I mention the whole experience at the cultural center was cheaper than Disneys luau. But thanks Peter and Kitra for you vlogs.

I like that they based the luau around Ko Olina and Ewa, specifically. That's cool. Other than our one night at Aulani away from the larger family, we stayed at a house on Ewa beach and it was incredible. That whole area of the island gets such nice weather. It's not as lush as the other side, but it worked for us. Looks like a great luau!!!

Now they are 5 and almost 8, and honestly, if we make it back within the next few years, I may just see if the kids club stays open late enough for us to drop them off during the luau!

It was interesting hearing the Hawaiian story of Maui compared to the Maori Story's of him, A lot of correlations. In Maori myth Maui used his hook made from the jaw bone of his grandmother Muriranga-whenua and pulled the north island of Aotearoa from the sea. In the Hawaiian version it seems he used it to pull the big island up.
