WOOHOO! That's some killer stuff man! Looks like you're in tiki heaven over there. I love the marine life sculpture. The mahimahi looks good enough to eat. Tikichaz, when you do go to Oahu & look for your authentic tiki, don't go to the swapmeat/fleamarkets. Those are the massed produced ones which are cheaply made coming from Asia. You would have to drive out of the city to the countryside(North to East). I recommend Kamehameha Hwy. You can either start on the Windward side(Kaneohe) & head North, or you can start from the North Shores beginning with Haleiwa & head towards Kaneohe. There are a bunch of Tiki carvers along that drive who have their art displayed along the road. Just make sure that you're not too focused on the beautiful scenery because you may miss them. :lol:
Here's one of them, another Tongan carver named Maile Niu. The road that he's carving in front of is Kamehameha Hwy. He's on the Kaneohe end of the drive, close to Kualoa Ranch.
