Yes, it
really exists! Who would ever think about
going to Hawaii to see Barbie?
Well...thousands of people every year do!
Nestled in the center of Kailua, Oahu, you
can find Hawaii's largest Barbie Doll
collection composed of approximately 5,000
Barbies, her family members and friends plus
other dolls such as G.I. Joe.
The museum is a private collection owned by
Florence Marton and is free to the
public...but you must call for an
appointment. Florence loves showing off her
Barbies and will even pick you up at your
hotel if you don't have transportation.
You can visit Barbie and Ken dressed in
various costumes including those of the
seven Polynesian nations: Fiji, Hawaii, The
Marquesas, New Zealand, Samoa, Tahiti, and
Tonga. Barbie and Ken can be seen modeling
various muumuus, pareos, holoku, holomuu,
and ancient hula costumes and aloha shirts
handmade by Florence Marton.
On display at the Hawaii Loves Barbie Doll
Museum are the number 1 Barbie,
International, Limited Edition, Christmas,
Porcelain Barbies, miniature Barbies, and
even two 6-foot tall Barbies.
Barbies everywhere! If you're taking your
daughter to Hawaii, be sure to give Florence
a call at (808)262-9100 to make an
appointment...it's sure to be one of the
fondest memories of your child's life! |
