We were very excited to attend a graduation ceremony a couple weeks ago at Kapolei High School. I think the last graduation we attended was for our own children almost 20 years ago in Illinois. The last high school graduation I attended in Hawaii was.... Good gosh! My brother's!
The Kapolei High School Commencement ceremony was held at their stadium.
Ummm....
It was HUGE! The general seating was on the other side of the stadium. I was glad I brought my bigger camera with the nice zoom.
I wish we'd also brought our binoculars.
A graduation in Hawaii is different from the mainland.
There was a concession stand where you could buy food. The people in front of me were busy stringing fresh flower leis for their graduate.
It was HOT! I was so glad I brought my solar umbrella. Art and I were comfortable under it.
I was amazed that there was a biplane flyover.
As far away as we were from the graduates my Canon SX50HS zoom allowed me to find my cousin's son on the upper most row of the bleachers.
The Marine honor guard marched in with the flags of the US, Hawaii and Marine Corps.
The ceremony itself was about an hour and a half. The sun went down so it became cooler.
Well wishers then swarmed onto the field carrying tons of leis and huge signs for the different graduates. Some were even lighted!
I was absolutely amazed. I'd never been to a graduation like this one.
I'm going to be attending a wedding next week. That should be fun too!
