King Kamehameha Birthday Parade

6/10 was King Kamehameha's Birthday.
There was a parade in Kapaau near Hawi. Northern part of Big Island in Kohala.

It is very small town, and was a small parade, but very cozy little parade.
First, when we arrived before parade, Lei donated from some organizations were being hung on King Kamehameha Statue.
In the end, the statue looked almost completely covered in Lei.

It was sunny and warm, but never too hot. there was always nice breeze blowing.

Parade was nice too. It followed the Lei hanging.
I expected a little bit longer since the town closed the main and only road, blocking the traffic so I felt like we had to stay for the day, but it only lasted only about an hour or so.

I wasn't quite listening who these people were, but it seems like some special people. Perhaps related to King's family.
Princess? Looking gorgeous in their colorful dress.
