He was hard done by, all right. Is there a memorial to him?
Make merry, Monarch. There’s a huge festival in his honor.

Good. I’m glad to hear that. Raising my glass to his memory.
Actually the Merrie Monarch Festival is named after King David Kalakaua, who restored the hula.
He’s got a statue about 5 blocks that way and a few blocks that way. Oddly enough it’s not on the street named after him which is only 2 blocks that way.
And he’s got an okina in his name too!

Oh, and it’s a state holiday. Those relaxing days off I don’t get.
I haven’t had a day off since President’s Day in Feb and wont get one till Memorial Day in May.
Rackin’ frackin’ varmints!
