On Friday, we all went down to Hale O Lono to check out the canoe and we
took our lunch and grandchildren. We had a very delicious lunch with
the Molokai Bread chicken sandwich, sushi, fruits and ample amounts of
water and drinks.

VA'A - WAHINE O KE KAI 2003
Molokai our destination, meet the ohana, with appreciation
In our minds.....we're paddling all in time.
Blow makani to the sea, or make it calm for all us please
Pirae Va'a, The Women of the Sea...... Pirae Va'a, paddle with the speed
Lorenza - Sheila and Hinatea, pushing the canoe with no despea
Josephine....... Chantel pulling through,
Then the changes must come about, Get ready Frida, Moevai no shout
Uraau....... Leilani you puka through
Pirae Va'a, this year's best crew.
Chorus: Make your bodies, like fishes in the sea
Have Faith in God, He will help you please....
Marie Rose, pointing to Waikiki, Pirae Va'a moving with speed
Sabrina you keep coming back, when you 18 you going attack
The big channel, you moa strong, you going handle.....
Okay you girls with anticipation, going reach the beach and shout jubilation
The T.V. crew, going take da video of you,
Pirae Va'a, da numba one crew
Chorus: Last Phrase, Pirae Va'a, da numba one crew!!!
.....Happy......Happy......Happy.......song.........(fade out)
