JAPAN FOR ALOHA | Shoppers apparently can find anything at the More's City megamall in Yokosuka, Japan, including a Hawaiian Store. Joyce Takemori of Aiea visited the store during a visit with her cousins Jocelyn, left, Zach and Douglas Nishida, who live in Japan. When they aren't working -- and Zach's not in school -- the Nishidas perform as members of the dance and musical group Islands of Da Heart.
