It’s Duke Kahanamoku’s 125th birthday today. How could I not honor his memory when I love Hawaii so much. I took this photo a couple of years ago at the Hard Rock Cafe in Waikiki, probably not far from wear Duke surfed.

Hey Miss … I just asked my hubby who is a surfer about him. And he said that Duke was a pioneer of surfing. A star! I showed him your pic too of course. Thank you
