Wow, the Hawaiian shirt has a quite interesting background. You could teach a class about it.
Coffee Times: The Aloha Shirt

The site below is more textual and has more specific details. There are excellent links too. The last link in that site has expired though. It was supposed to show the world's largest aloha shirt at the www.guinnessworldrecords.com. I went there directly, and couldn't find it there either. But you can see a picture of this shirt at the Hilo Hattie store. That shirt is sure huge! You probably could fit it on a baby elephant or something. Now, try to visualize that, a one of a kinde elephant baby in a hawaiian shirt roaming all over the safari. Just goofing ;-)
