It's here in the southern part of the island where the new and old worlds of Kaua'i converge to create a spectacle of beauty and fun that you won't get anywhere else on the island. If you love action, this is the place to be because there's plenty of it. First-class restaurants, accommodations, beaches and a tremendous number of activities await. The South Shore is the sunny side of the island, so you can feel free to work on your tan, cool off in the ocean or enjoy the trade winds blowing in from the ocean. Turning on Highway 520 from Kaumuali'i Highway (Highway 50), the first thing you'll notice is the Tunnel of Trees towering over you. After a few minutes heading down the winding road, you'll get to Koloa Town, which represents the old world of Kaua'i. The area was a prime destination for whalers who landed at Koloa Landing, as well as for sugar plantation workers, which made Po'ipu a bustling economic center. Koloa was the site of Hawai`i's first successful sugar plantation, established in 1835. There are plenty of old churches and homes (especially down Waikomo Road) that maintain the charm of this town. Po'ipu has the attractions and activities that draw visitors from all over the world. Moir Gardens is part of the Outrigger Kiahuna Plantation property. This renowned garden is worth a visit. Just west of Po'ipu, you'll see Prince Kuhio Park. National Tropical Botanical Gardens is the only tropical botanical garden with a charter from the United States Congress, and it includes McBryde Gardens and Allerton Gardens. You can walk around the grounds here at no charge and browse among the bananas, pineapples and bamboo trees, among many, many other plants -- the largest collection of native plants in existence. Spouting Horn is part tourist spectacle, part shopping destination and part natural wonder. The phenomenon of Spouting Horn occurs when incoming waves rush through a hole in the rock. Kukuiolono Park is another unforgettable sight. Kukuilono means "light of the god Lono" in Hawaiian. There's a walking loop about one mile long that goes through a lava rock garden, a Hawaiian garden and a beautiful Japanese garden with a stone footbridge, sculptures, bonsai trees and fountains overgrown with plants

When a teacher asks the children in her class to think about what makes their families special, the answers are all different in many ways — but the same in the one way that matters most of all. One child is worried that her family is just too different to explain, but listens as her classmates talk about what makes their families special. One is raised by a grandmother, and another has two dads. One has many stepsiblings, and another has a new baby in the family. As her classmates describe who they live with and who loves them — family of every shape, size and every kind of relation — the child realizes that as long as her family is full of caring people, it is special.

Download or read book Daughter of Moloka i written by Alan Brennert and published by St. Martin's Press. This book was released on 2019-02-19 with total page 304 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: NOW A LOS ANGELES TIMES BESTSELLER | NAMED A BEST/MOST ANTICIPATED BOOK BY: USA Today • BookRiot • BookBub • LibraryReads • OC Register • Never Ending Voyage The highly anticipated sequel to Alan Brennert’s acclaimed book club favorite, and national bestseller, Moloka'i "A novel of illumination and affection." —USA Today Alan Brennert’s beloved novel Moloka'i, currently has over 600,000 copies in print. This companion tale tells the story of Ruth, the daughter that Rachel Kalama—quarantined for most of her life at the isolated leprosy settlement of Kalaupapa—was forced to give up at birth. The book follows young Ruth from her arrival at the Kapi'olani Home for Girls in Honolulu, to her adoption by a Japanese couple who raise her on a strawberry and grape farm in California, her marriage and unjust internment at Manzanar Relocation Camp during World War II—and then, after the war, to the life-altering day when she receives a letter from a woman who says she is Ruth’s birth mother, Rachel. Daughter of Moloka'i expands upon Ruth and Rachel’s 22-year relationship, only hinted at in Moloka'i. It’s a richly emotional tale of two women—different in some ways, similar in others—who never expected to meet, much less come to love, one another. And for Ruth it is a story of discovery, the unfolding of a past she knew nothing about. Told in vivid, evocative prose that conjures up the beauty and history of both Hawaiian and Japanese cultures, it’s the powerful and poignant tale that readers of Moloka'i have been awaiting for fifteen years.
