It was really an amazing place. We went to just about every show provided by the center. They had a number of island systems represented at the center and each one had shows and presentations as well as hands on workshops. We only were able to do a few workshops, but spent most of our time viewing the different cultural shows.
We ended the evening first with a Lu'au dinner at the center and then a big finale type presentation. At the dinner we sat next to a small family from Wisconsin. We found out they were LDS just near the end of our time together. We mentioned to them that we were planning on going to Nauvoo in this fall with the kids. They had friends that own a house in Nauvoo. For most of the year it is empty and they rent it out for free with a request that you donate a specific amount of money to Fast Offerings. Pretty interesting concept. We'll have to check it out if our Nauvoo plans involve an overnight stay.
