Never Say Goodbye
The lei has became the symbol of Hawaii to millions of visitors worldwide. Legends grew around the luck of the lei. It is said that if departing visitors throw their lei into the ocean and it floats back to the beach they hope that, like the lei, they too would return to the islands again someday. This is my lei thrown into the ocean with my hopes of a return visit to the islands of Hawaii.
We are leaving for home tonight. See you on the mainland tomorrow.
