I Cant Miss !!! 89 Hawaii

The next day we went to explore Hawaii as we hiked up to take a closer look at the volcanos. It was quite an experience for me some folks from my neighborhood would never be able to see a scene like this in their lifetime but here I was taking it in with my beautiful girlfriend by my side and just appreciating everything I've been through and thanking God for the second chance. After we came down we went out to sea to have a seafood lunch and was even given the chance to catch our lunch.

They let me swim with a few sharks which were interesting to me as we spent quite some time out there until we had to go back to shore because there was something I wanted to see before leaving the island and that was the Hawaii fire dancers. We went back to our rooms to freshen up for the night as we made our way to the restaurant to witness and learn of the fire origins. In Hawaii and throughout all of Polynesia… Fire is Pele. Forests bursting into flame, crackling and burning as fiery molten lava flows over the land, devouring the earth, cleansing… bringing new life.

Hawaii Hula honors the more recent tradition of Samoan Fire Knife Dancing, it was as thrilling as it was dangerous. The origin of this magnificent spectacle is credited to Freddie Letuli of Samoa. During his career as a dancer in San Francisco, Letuli was inspired by a fire-eater and another performer who twirled Batons lit with fire. His creative mind envisioned the two arts as one, he borrowed some fuel from the fire-eater, wrapped towels around his knife and lit the blaze! It was the birth of Samoan Fire Knife Dancing. Fire Knife dancing spread throughout the land and was used as a cultural practice which began with proving a warrior's prowess.

The skill it requires to twirl, throw, catch and dance with a Fire Knife is what captures the attention of any Polynesian show. Many Polynesian Cultures have adopted this practice into their own over time. Hawaii Hula Company is proud to represent the premier Fire Knife Dancing professionals on Maui, Oahu, and Hawaii Island. When the drums play and we saw that first spark of fire to the corner of the stage, we were hooked.

Drawn into the mystery and the visual feast before us, we didn't want to blink in fear we would miss a moment of the spectacle. Fire Knife dancers are rare outside of a Luau finale. To go to a luau and see it as the last act of the night among the other 230 guests is a good time, the guys were Spinning and twirling Fire Knives ablaze with fire into the night sky. The exciting beat of the live Polynesian drums echoing through the night air it was very exciting and I've always wanted to see things like that and experiencing it without any stress was a great experience for me.

I truly thought Hawaii was a beautiful place and wanted to bring Isabella and the rest of the gang up here one day for a vacation. After watching a great performance we had a romantic dinner and just enjoy the scenery. It was then that I had given her the ring and told her that it was a promise ring for the future that I wanted to spend with her. She started tearing up as she thanked me for loving someone like her and for making that promise. It made her feel better about the future together and was looking forward to how things would be.

The night continued as we chatted about all kinds of subjects before making our way back to our room to get some rest because we would be boarding a plane early in the morning to head back home. When we got back to the room we didn't feel sleepy so we had some intimate times before falling asleep and waking up the next day to get packed up and leave. We had our last breakfast in Hawaii before boarding the plane and leaving to go back to the hotel. I dropped off Sandra at home as her mother saw the ring on her daughter's finger she was excited but we had to explain to her that it was only a promise ring.

She was still excited because she loved the fact that her daughter had someone who cares and promised the future for her. After chatting for a few hours I left and went home as Isabella came running towards me after hearing I was back home. She came and hugged me and seeing someone run to meet me with excitement made me happy. I asked her if she wanted to help her daddy move to school and she frowned because she knew I was going to be gone for a good while.

I could only laugh at her antics as I had called the movers to help me move my stuff into my dorm room since I didn't have much to do for the rest of the day. I had gotten a suite dorm room and didn't have any roommates to bother me. I didn't know where Sandra was staying but she had joined some college girl beta group and had to go through some rituals to be accepted into the group which I hoped they would go easy on her.

I had gotten lost when I went there again so the movers were a little annoyed but we eventually found the place. The room was huge and it came with a kitchen, living room, storage room, and a huge bathroom with a jacuzzi in it. It was well furnished and classy. I fell in love with the suite right away, the room phone rang as I picked up and it was the head of security in my dormitory welcoming me to the school. He told if I need anything I shouldn't be scared to contact him. I thanked him and hanged up to get other things done around the suite.
