The third chapter of the Carnival of Aloha is taking its readers on a “Hawaiian safari!” Evelyn at Homespun Honolulu has prepared our minds for an adventure that’s sure to ease the recent rains, winds and electricity outages.
Once again, Infinity is a carnival feature highlighting “Our Roaring Weekend.” We’re enticed to trot off to Maui in “Reflections on Maui,” a love story. And, we’re shown exactly why it’s easy to fall in love with Maui when we visit, “Kepaniwai Park’s Heritage Gardens.” But did you know, “Best Halloween in Hawaii in Lahaina on Maui?”
From Maui we’re off to Kaua’i for a refreshing smoothie at “Banana Joe.” Before we head back to Oahu, let’s stop off in Hilo and take the challenge, “Move This 2 1/2 Ton Stone, and Rule Hawaii.”
Of course, what is a tour of the islands without stopping at the “other” island Las Vegas to visit Tita Lika as she, “Ms I-Wanna Hula.”
After all of that wouldn’t you love to find this “Secret Cove?”
Planning ahead, Auntie Pupule reminds us to support the “3rd Annual MWH Christmas Slippah Wish Project.”
Mahalo to Evelyn for bringing the Carnival of Aloha to our homes!

Just a quick thanks before I wonder off again. I had no idea what a blog carnival was (or a synchroblog for that matter) and I spent some time checking what this stuff was about.
Hey guys see if you can find a way of getting Mark Twain’s Letters from Hawaii in one of your carnivals, Mark Twain spent some time in Honolulu and he is deemed one of America’s greatest writers.
I checked through my database and I have only mentioned Hawaii twice before this and that is after 2,500 online postings that are simply the exhaust fumes of my thinking. One of my references was to a site that teaches people to speak pidgin, but that reference was again only in the passing comments to the piece I wrote called Abstraction. So I can now begin to erase my ignorance on this particular score.
I did once catch a group of Hawaiin people talking about the Hawaiian Revolution of 1893, and when I now put all of this together in the context of a blog carnival of Aloha, I am beginning to learn so many new things that make Hawaii far more than just a tourist destination. It is a fascinating geological place but its even more fascinating people place.
Thanks for the enlightenment. Now I guess I can say a hui hou or aloha if you so prefer.
