“664.Hula-hoop Girls at Beach” Oil painting by Mariko Irie<\/p><\/div>\n

This scene was at La Jolla Shore the last middle of January.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

It was nice warm day.<\/p>\n

We walked the long beach for miles.<\/p>\n

Walking on the long beach as looking happy people activities were very amusing to me.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

I go to Mendocino coast, but the tempter of the air is too cold to be in swimming suits and jumping around.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

But Southern California people visit Mendocino coast for escaping from people, crowd.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

These girls were having hula-hoops caught my eyes.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

When I was a little, hula-hoops came in Japan from U.S. But after that I didn\u00e2\u20ac\u2122t see them for long time.<\/p>\n

But my friend told me that she got a few hula-hoops from garage sale recently. The woman, who sold hula-hoops to my friend, makes them. She makes small ones, heavier ones, can put fire ones\u00e2\u20ac\u00a6 a lot of kinds.<\/p>\n

And then I googled. http:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Hula_hoop<\/p>\n

It says: they have existed for thousands of years, they are often misunderstood as being invented in the 1950s.<\/p>\n

Native American Hoop Dance<\/a>\u00c2\u00a0was, and is, a form of storytelling dance incorporating anywhere from one to 30 hoops as props.<\/p>\n

Now the past few years have seen the re-emergence of hula hooping. An International Holiday\u00c2\u00a0World Hoop Day<\/a>\u00c2\u00a0has become the hula hoop holiday celebrating the circle around the world.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Wow! I didn\u00e2\u20ac\u2122t know all, and even hula-hoops have existed now days. What a fun.<\/p>\n
