It was kind of mercial on Oahu but the outer islands were not too bad. for the hotels strung out for miles along the otherwise bare coastlines it was the beautiful South Seas you read about.

Hawaiians are so mixed racially that Kalanie instead of tistneing and he always had to repeat. He was worth his wight in gold to we poor confused tourists. When my aunt and I went any place alone we always got fouled up. I don’t know how he managed to programme 39 of us as he did. He wore a huge hat with bright blue feathers around it so we could always find him when we needed him. When it came time to get ~ home he took care of the pineapples and anthirums ete. that everyone wanted to bring home. He just gave us our baggage checks for them and we picked them up in L.A, He went with us on most of our tours and if our drivers missed a story he filled it in for them, Hawaiian tour drivers are fun. They tell stories (legends) and history or sing or just talk about what you came to see throughout your trip. They are so courteous and happy. I never saw such happy people. They seem to want you to enjoy their beautiful islands. My nephew and his family met us in Honolulu with the usual Lei g.

Maui was our favorite: Its beautiful bea beautiful hotels, beautiful food, beautiful sets, the historic old whaling port of Hana Point. with its rugged beauty and steeped in history, the second largest banyan tree in world, and the Sugar Cane Train are a of the things that charmed us.

They only have 12 letters five of which are our vowel sounds. In Hawaiian you always (yes ALWAYS) pronounce @as ah, e as a, 1 as e, 0 as 0, and u as ooo. There is a more graphic way to put it but you will get the meaning. Accents threw me. Every syllable must have a vowel. It usually has ~ ‘one consonant.
