Hawaii Hula Festival Videos

    A Komo Mai everybody,
    At Best Hawaii Vacation Blog, we are proud of sharing big Hawaii events which keep Hawaiian traditions and culture alive with all our friends who are in love with Hawaii. Hawaii vacation is not only about white sand beaches, as we all know, but also about the Hawaiian culture which we experience everywhere on the islands. Aloha spirit and hula are the biggest part.

    In the past, we wrote many posts about the meaning of hula and hula festivals in Hawaii. The Merrie Monarch Hula Festival on Hawaii Big Island is coming up for its 48th anniversary this 2011 Easter. Good reason to get you in the hula festival mood with our Hawaii Hula Festival videos.

    For those who have not heard about the Merrie Monarch Hula Festival, here is some basic information for Big Island visitors, who are in Hawaii and would like to visit Hilo for the Hula Festival this Easter. Merrie Monarch Festival is a non-profit organization that honors the legacy left by King David Kalakaua, who inspired the perpetuation of Hawaii traditions and culture, Hawaiian language and arts.

    The week-long festival features an internationally acclaimed hula competition, a huge crafts fair, an amazing Hawaiian art show, a grand parade through Hilo town and last but not least, a three-day hula competition that has received worldwide recognition. This year's 2011 Merrie Monarch Festival takes place April 24-30, 2011.

    In preparation of this Hawaii Hula Festival blog I perused many hula videos on youtube including some of the older Merrie Monarch Festivals. Enjoying all thess hula videos, the chants and songs, beautiful Hawaiian style costumes and the special sounds of Hawaiian music, I came across the following video by the Polynesian Cultural Center's about hula shows at Moanikeala Festival. I was so impressed by it that I decided to post it here.

    Most impressive of this Hawaii hula festival video was for me that hula is a dance of all generations from the youngest keiki to the older generation. Please, enjoy this huge variety of hula dances.



    We close our Hawaii Hula Festival post with a video from the 2008 Merrie Monarch Festival presenting Halau Hula Olana, which shows the grace, the love, the beauty and the commitment of the Hawaiian wahine in their hula performance.



    Let us know what you think about these Hawaii hula videos and of course your experience with the Merrie Monarch Hula Festival. Mahalo and aloha, Pua

2011 Hawaii volcano eruption videos

    The world's most active volcano is erupting again!

    I remember in the late 70ies when Hawaii's Kilauea Volcano erupted. It was a very similar scenario to the msnbc.com Hawaii Volcano Eruption Video shown during the nightly show with Brian Williams and displayed on MSN.

    Back thirty years ago, it was also the East Rift zone that erupted. We were able to drive our car and park along a road close-by to the lava flow. The eruption was maybe 300yards away, with a curtain of lava, very similar to the video, shooting lava over 100 feet into the air with the curtain extending far a distance of more than 200 yards. Just to stand there and watch the most active volcano on earth, spewing red hot molten lava and listening to the sound as if a jet engine is ready to take off but never does, that is deeply embedded in my mind, never to be forgotten.

    Big Island visitors' numbers have considerably increased according to 'US Today Travel' due to the dramatic Hawaii volcano eruption. Hawaii Volcanoes National Park recommends Big Island volcano visitors to get maps, photos, Webcam views, and other information about Kilauea Volcano on the official Hawaii Volcano website. Currently the 'Chain of Craters' Road, East Rift Zone and the campground in Volcanoes Park are closed for visitors. Big Island visitors may get a daily update on the volcano's activity and road closures by phone at (808) 967-8862.

    If you are interested in more information about our Hawaii Kilauea Volcano history and the current 2011 eruption, visit 'Big Island Video News' - best source for daily Big Island video news -, which actually just published today interesting information about the 'Man behind global Hawaiian Volcano eruption video' I guess we all, including msnbc.com, have to give him huge credit for this amazing 'Hawaii Volcano Eruption Video".

    Any comments from recent Hawaii Volcanoes Park visitors are most welcome. Mahalo and aloha, Keoki and Pua Hawaii Vacation
