5 Kauai OG’s making memories - Poly Ad Ohana,
I recently got to go on the Movie Tour with Kana’e as our guide.. From the first
ALOHA greeting, Kana’e gave us a fun filled day. She was so good with her knowledge of all the movies and her delivery of the movie clips as we circled the island was exceptional. She kept us entertained and laughing the whole day. Kana’e you were the best!! Thanks for making all of us part of your Ohana 💜
And to Malia, Kauai Dispatch, thanks for making my friends birthday wish come true! She turned 70 and said it was the best ever!! Couldn’t have done it without you.
Mahalo to all of you that have helped develop this tour and make it what it has become today. Awesome job and mahalo nui! , Nalani
