Just wanted to add that I had long been by the museum and seen the big tiki and wanted to go in, but b/c of the weird hours I always forgot about it. This was my first time there and it exceeded my expectations! I expected some vintage surfboards, posters, and album covers and that was about it. There was that and so much more. There's even a tongue-in-cheek recreation of the Silver Surfer's silver surfboard ("The fastest surfboard in the universe, can travel 7 times faster than the speed of light."). And of course, tons of tiki and Polynesian Pop or else I wouldn't be mentioning it to you. One final thing to mention, the museum is very small, but it is PACKED with stuff. Again, I was impressed.

Now, anyone have a camera that can come up and take pictures?
