Kualoa Ranch and Luau

Yesterday was jammed packed. I thought about going to the beach, but instead went to Kualoa Ranch. It is a very old ranch that was bought by a missionary directly from the King. I went with a Canadian girl on the movies and ranch tour.

They took us around the Ranch on a open bus and we got some cool pics of movie locations. Here are the highlights:

Bunker from Lost and Pearl Harbor. It is a real bunker that was build after the attacks at Pearl Harbor.

Log from the scene of Jurassic park where they hide behind it and dinosaurs jump over.

The little penguin gets run over in 50 first dates.

After the tour, due to bus malfunctions, I had to run from the bus to get to another hotel where I was meeting another Hosteler and being picked up to go to Germaine’s Luau.

The luau was very well organized and a lot of fun. Yummy food and drink, good entertainment and I got a gift bag with postcards because we booked online!

Funny thing though.. two of my post cards of people dressed in Maori costume, because the show was a display of the pacific islands dancing. I travelled how far to see this?
