I second SoccerTiki -- THANK YOU John-O and bongofury.
I'm really looking forward to getting to visit two tiki destinations tonight -- the famous Rincon Room and the infamous Hong Kong Inn.

Yes the Tonga Hut makes it 3... BUT I also have a 4th significant Tiki site that the bus will be visiting (traffic permitting).
Tiki isn't just about fun, food, and frozen pineapple drinks, it's also about knowing your Tiki history.
It's about worshiping our Tiki ancestors !!
Tiki Central = LEARNING.

Amen, braddah!
Until tiki is listed at Ancestry.com, the most significant archive of our Polynesian Pop cultural heritage can only be found at Tiki Central.
See all you tonight!
