Honolulu GTG August 11--Bon Dance Time
 
It's bon dance season! A few of us will be going to the Shingon Mission bon dance on Saturday, August 11, about 5 or 6 p.m. The parking is kinda tight, so you can park in the HMSA building--make sure you get validated at the bon dance.

Dinner is probably going to be at KAI, an okonomiyaki place in the area (behind Wal Mart). Keep watching this space for details.

For those who are not familiar with bon dances, you can see videos on YouTube.com or www.champuru.net.

Yes ma'am!

We'll be needing some excitement after 2 weeks of boredom on Kaua'i. Let us know when to expect the Mini Cooper Bon Dance express shuttle. \:D/

How much and how often should one tip the Mini Cooper BonDance Express shuttle driver? And should you tip more if the top's down?

iamq Jul 15th, 2007 10:03 AM

An "I love Kaua'i" halter tank top in pink with little silver rhinestones and glitter.


MelissaHI Jul 15th, 2007 11:37 PM

You should definitely tip more if I drive with my top down!!

iceeu2 Jul 16th, 2007 03:28 AM

As long as the hachimaki is in a "slimming" color. Wait...what is a hachimaki?
