Waimānalo Christmas Parade 2019

On Saturday, December 14, 2019, the keiki of Hui Mālama O Ke Kai participated in the Waimānalo Christmas Parade. This year, the theme for our float focused on the moʻolelo (story) of Hiʻiakaikapoliopele (Hiʻiaka) embarking on a journey to find Lohiau, a lover of Pele.  During her journey, Hiʻiaka travels to the mokupuni of Oʻahu and spends some time in Waimānalo. On our float, you will see specific characters in which she encounters, such as Makapuʻu - the 8 bulging eyed deity and Kāhoahoa - a strong current that stirs the depths of the ocean between Molokaʻi and Oʻahu, often times seen as a water spout. You will also see a bunch of ʻIhiʻihilauākea on the mountain tops, signifying her interaction with Mālei, a women who dwelled in these terrestrial ferns. ​Mahalo nui to all of those who donated their time and resources to help make this day possible for our keiki!
