2026 Kamehameha Floral Parade

I was trying to capture the lei and headpieces of the Pa'u riders and the horses. This year I noticed the interesting lei in back of the riders on the saddles.  Also the backs of the headdresses were often more interesting than the front.  Beautiful job done with the different types of flowers and foliage.

May 2, 2026 Lei Po'o Workshop

This was a challenging workshop due to the price and availability of flowers right before Lei Day.  But the ladies did a fabulous job with what we had to offer.  Most of them were beginners but they all finished on time.

Finished pieces!

Fabulous work!
