It happens every sunset. A native Hawaiian member of the staff at Four Seasons Hualalai runs through the resort at sunset. He lights torches throughout the resort and blows a conch shell (the Pu) — an ancient Hawaiian ceremonial practice to say goodbye and Mahalo for the day just ended.
A modern-day Pied Piper, a group of children ran with him as he lit the torches. This endearing scene unfolded right by our seaside table as we were seated for dinner at Ulu Ocean Grill.
