Voyaging canoe H?k?le‘a is sailing back down the East Coast and is currently docked in a small town in upstate New York. Students from the Westport school system paid a visit to learn about voyaging traditions and Hawaiian culture. We checked in with H?k?le‘a crew member Haunani K?ne as part of our ongoing series H?k?le‘a: Voyage of Aloha.
