    Congratulations from Cambodia! I lived in Hawai'i for 9 years mostly on the Waianae side, but Kahuku, Hauula has a place in my heart too. I stayed at the beach there some of the time when I was homeless and visited again after I published bilingual Hawaii-English books. Wonderful place and so nice to see this celebration.
