Ka Moʻaukalaʻo B & I
Ua weheʻia ka B & I i kahi hale kūʻai waiwai i ka makahiki 1946 e nā mea nona nā EL Irwin a me ML Bradshaw. Ma hope o ka manawa, ua hōʻano hou ka hale kūʻai me nā meaʻoi akuʻole o ka lako-i ka makahiki 1948, he carousel; i ka makahiki 1953, he elephant i kapaʻiaʻo Sammy; a laila kekahi mau hulu mele i kapaʻiaʻo Cathy lāuaʻo Murphy.
Ma hope i kahi manawa i hakakā aiʻo Tacoma no nā hōʻailona hōʻoluʻolu maikaʻi loa o ka Hōʻaleʻele , ua hāʻawiʻo EL Irwin i ka hōʻike maikaʻi loa i hoʻokahi makahiki no ka carousel 35-kapua ma kahi o ka B & I me nā holo lioʻeono i laila, a he 12 kapuaʻi hoʻi Hoʻopihaʻia ke kapuahi me Santa.
Me nāʻano holoholona a me nā hiʻona maʻaneʻi, uaʻikeʻiaʻo iaʻo B & I Circus Store a uaʻike nuiʻia ma kahi mamao a ākea no ka hauʻoli. I ka makahiki 1960, hoʻomaka ka hale kūʻai e lawe mai i nā hiʻohiʻona kaulana kaulana,ʻo ia hoʻiʻo Sheena, Mō'īwahine o ka Jungle,ʻo Burt Ward mai ka hōʻikeʻikeʻo "Batman", a me ka mea hoʻokani pila Joe Louis.
Ma ka hopena, i kēia manawa,ʻo'Ivana ka gorilla nāna i hana ka hale kūʻai i kaulana loa. Ua lawe 'ia' o Ivan i ka B & I i ka makahiki 1964 i kona manawa kamaliʻi a noho i loko o kekahi pā i kūkulu 'ia iā ia no 28 mau makahiki. Ma hope o ka loaʻaʻoleʻana o kekahi meaʻokoʻa'ē aʻe no kona ola a pau, ua loaʻa iā ia ka manaʻo o nā mea hoʻoneʻe holoholona a ua neʻeʻia i Zoo Atlanta.
Hoʻomaopopo mau nā kama'āina o Tacoma i ka heleʻana i'Ivana.
I kēia lā, hōʻikeʻia ka moʻaukala o ka hale ma nā paia o kekahi mau māhele o ka B & I, a me nā pā hale kaʻaʻole o nā wahi i piha iā Ivan. ʻOiaiʻo ka B & I e kiʻi hou aku i nā mea kūʻai a me nāʻohana i nāʻohana, he mea pono no ka kipaʻana - e nānā pono i kēia wahi hīmeni i ke kino a hāʻawi i kahi nalu i nā mea i hala kahiko i poinaʻoleʻia e like me ka poʻe o Tacoma drive ma kaʻaoʻao hema o Tacoma Way me ke nānāʻana i kēia hoʻonani nani nani.
ʻO ka B & I I kēia lā
Kūkuluʻia ma South Tacoma, nā hale kūʻai B & I a me nā hale papaʻa. Hiki paha iāʻoe keʻimi i ka B & I me ka hapanui o nā mea nele, aiʻole paha e piha i nā mea kūʻai, e like me ka lā. Hoʻomanaʻo nuiʻia nā hale kūʻai e nā mea kūʻai kūʻai wale i ka hoʻomakaʻana i kaʻoihanaʻoihana, akā, e loaʻa iāʻoe nā hale kūʻai i noho maʻaneʻi no nā makahiki. Eʻikeʻoe i nāʻano waiwai likeʻole a pau-wigs,ʻaʻahu, mea hoʻokipa hāpai,ʻoihana, aʻoi aku. Heʻokoʻa ka koho aʻikeʻoleʻoe i nā hale kūʻai maʻamau iʻaneʻi. Aia kahi hale kūʻai puaʻa maʻaneʻi, kahi likeʻole āu eʻike ai ma nā wahi'ē aʻe. ʻO nā puppies, nā momona, nā hua manu, nā mea kolo, nā manu a me nā mea'ē aʻe a pau.
I kou heleʻana ma nā alanui, eʻikeʻoe i nā'āpana o ka B & I i kāʻaukala i waihoʻia maʻaneʻi a ma laila e hoʻomanaʻo ai mahalo ai i ka hala; he kūpono kēia e hoʻomaha e heluhelu aiʻole e nānā i keʻano o ka B & I i kēia mau lā aʻoi loa loa a me ka hoʻomakaʻana.
ʻO kekahi o nāʻano koʻikoʻi loa o ka B & Iʻo ia kona pahuhopu-kahi mea āu eʻikeʻole ai ma kahi'ē aʻe. He nui kēia a piha i nā pāʻani vidio nostalgic a me ka pāʻani pila. Ināʻoe i mahalo nui i nāʻaʻa i nā makahiki 1980, he pono ke kipaʻana iā ia.
Aia kekahi mau haleʻai; ʻoiai,ʻaʻohe kaulahao, kahiʻoihana kūʻokoʻa wale nō. ʻO nā meaʻai mai kahi pilikino maoliʻo Mexica i Indian a meʻAmelika.
