Hawaii continues to be high on my list of places to see and someday, I know I will get there. If most of the people are as gracious as you are, I know it will be hard to leave!<br />Joyce (from BF)Bloggin foolhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16271785469903659245noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6222386100650172973.post-30112952648148701592009-08-01T23:03:33.730-07:002009-08-01T23:03:33.730-07:00Deb, those are wonderful photos.

She sacrificed her kingdom so as not to sacrifice any of her people. That was a very sad time in the history of Hawaii. <br /><br />You need only to read her autobiography to discover how well educated, well written and what kind of a true christian she was. She was heads above many of the so called Christians that came to Hawaii in that time.Karen in Honoluluhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00847991985029715275noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6222386100650172973.post-1095765275705335832009-04-23T08:58:00.000-07:002009-04-23T08:58:00.000-07:00Nice blog Twitter friend.
