HK – There is Hawaiian in this but in a Pidgin Format. Although The Bus isnʻt pidgin the way they say can be considered Pidgin. “Aloha the bus” can be defined as “Love the bus.” This is a bus stop bench in fron of Gateway Hale. I dont think students even notice that its even there. But it is faced towards the road so it is showing appreciation towards the Bus Drivers that drive the busses.
