11/27/10 - Spent the day working with Keala'iliahi Paredes on hei for children. Here he makes 'Opae (Shrimp) which will be part of the story "'Öpae E". We also learned puhi (eel), honu (turtle), nenue (rudder fish).
Later that day Keali'i Reischel and Hulali joined us to learn "Kuhau Pi'o ka La". We began with "Kauhale o Limaloa." Keali'i is a well known composer, singer, producer, and kumu hula but is also an expert in Hawaiian knotting and netmaking. He found the skill to make hei different from knotting and commented that he found it harder.
