Now fellow tikphiles please don't take offence in what i'm about to say next, as i've been waiting many years to attend an event like this and have all my event/seminar tickets at the ready for a non-stop action packed tiki weekend, but there is also this other lesser knowned event on at the same time which is trying to steal some of the Hukilau's glory... i refer to that little thing called the soccer WORLD CUP!!

Being an Australian (we're sport crazy), married to an Argentinian (they're soccer crazy), currently living in England (somewhat refined crazy), we are high on world cup fever anticipation and will be hoping to squeeze time in between the tiki freakout to watch some of the important matches. If anyone else is interested, these are some of the interesting ones:

Fri 10am (Miami time): South Africa v Mexico - opening match
Sat 10am " " : Argentina v Nigeria
Sat 14:30 " " : England v USA
Sun 14:30 " " : Australia v Germany

I know, I know, tiki and sport just doesn't mix... but this is the biggest event on the planet and only once every 4 years! Hopefully it will be on in the hotel bars and it would be great to share the atmosphere with some other Hukilau'ers?

...don't sweat it there's always a contingent of west coast tikiphiles who disappear whenever the lakers are in the playoffs!
