Debbie was awakened at 3:30 AM by some cocky rooster (get it – a pun) taking roll call. He would call out and somewhere nearby another rooster would answer. This went on for 30 minutes. Debbie prefers to think of it as chickens spreading the news that she is on the island but there is going to be a problem if this roll call stuff continues every night.
On Tuesday, the group took a driving tour around the Princeville and Hanalei area. Debbie mostly gave stink eyes to the chickens but there are just so many.
So, let’s address the Puff the Magic Dragon rumors. When the three grew up, it was a popular song sung by Peter, Paul and Mary. Puff lived by the sea in a land called Honalee. The rumor was that the song was about marijuana in Hanalei. However, the author says that it was written in 1958 before this drug was available so the answer is no. There does seem to be a high number of old hippies around so think perhaps they did not have the song rumor cleared up.
Jerry and Joyce want to assure Larry that they are doing the best that they can to keep Debbie off the Old Hippie path. She has started wearing sandals and humming “Puff the Magic Dragon” and they feel that she knows more words to the song than she should. They let her make a 70s play list but no one knows how to play it so they are encouraging her to continue.
