What day of the week does the lovely lady at ohana not work. Just making sure she is there when we go. Thanks

Sorry if I am misunderstanding.... But what lady?

Lipoa. I believe she has gone home to Hawaii to help care for a sick friend and is no longer at 'Ohana.

Was she the only one who did that? How long ago did she leave?

She was there on July 4th. My 7 year old enjoyed the coconut race.

There was also a man who performed on her days off. He doesn't do as much as she did but they still had the coconut races and I think the limbo too, and he plays the ukulele.

I can't remember when I read that she was leaving. She posted it on Facebook, maybe a few months ago. Maybe she never left? Maybe she left and came back? I really don't know for certain. I'll try to get more information. If I come up with anything I'll come back and post.

I'm happy to hear that! That must mean she either didn't leave, or she did but returned! Thank you for sharing the information!

ETA: Her days off used to be Sunday and Monday, but the last time I had confirmation of that was at least two years ago so it could have changed. Two trips in a row we managed to coincide with her vacations and we missed her, so that's always a possibility too. I know DD is always SO disappointed when we go and she isn't there.

When I was at Ohana last September, there was a gentleman from Hawaii who was doing the floor show during dinner. He was out on the floor the whole time we were there until just before closing. He did the coconut races with the kids, the limbo, played a ukulele, had people come up and sing with him, it was great...

He was giving out lei's to the people who were doing things with him. At the end of our dinner, an hour or so after wishes (we had a window table at the back corner and a perfect view of wishes from our table), he finished his show and my girlfriend asked me if I thought he would give her a lei if she asked. I told her most certainly, but she was hesitant, so I said lets go say hello to him. So we walked over to him, complimented him and thanked him for making our night so wonderful, and he was very appreciative. After speaking with him for about ten minutes, he gave my girlfriend a hug, and when she asked if she could have a lei, he laughed, smiled, and said of course, and put five lei's around my girlfriends neck... Then he gave me one as well so my girlfriend could keep all five for herself..

It really made our night and we are really looking forward to going back to Ohana in September.
