Aloha

We attended the opening ceremonies today for "Healing Our Spirit Worldwide" in Oahu.  The dignitaries arrived by canoe and were announced via conch shell horns.  Indigenous people from New Zealand, the Turtle Islands, Canada, Australia, the U.S are in attendance and performed all afternoon with traditional dances, singing, speeches, etc.  The schedule of presentations for the rest of the week looks equally as interesting,  My presentation on the success of combining Traditional and Western medicine in Congo is Tuesday.
