Hawaii Day 4 - Polynesian Cultural Center

Today we visited the Polynesian Cultural Centre, located in the Northern side of the island. This is a theme park concentrating on 8 cultural villages where performers demonstrate different arts and crafts, starting a fire, climbing trees, dance, drums and singing. We knew that we wanted to go to this when planning for this trip so we bought Entertainment books which has a $45 coupon. We bought the pass that includes admission, dinner buffet and the Ha Breath show. With the $45 discount, it worked out to $55/person (kids were free). Pretty good deal.

It was pretty interesting. We spent all day there and watched the Ha Breath show. I was so prepared for this (had the milk and baby food all packed) but I actually forgot the bottle nipples at the house. How could I be so forgetful? Because it was a 45 minute drive to get there, I really didn't want to drive home to the nipple. We tried to buy a different type of bottle to see if Julia would drink her milk. NOPE. Julia won't budge. She kept smiling and putting the bottle into her mouth, chewing on the nipple but won't drink anything. Sigh, so I ate dinner really, really fast, then made my way back to the house. I actually made it back to watch the Ha Breath show (missed like 10 minutes of it). As soon as we gave Julia her regular nipple and bottle, she drank the entire thing in 5 minutes! She was so hungry... sorry baby!
