Kalaekilohana -
Aloha! You've discovered an award-winning Hawaii Bed and Breakfast on the big
island of Hawaii, standing between the distant summit of Mauna Loa volcano and
Ka Lae, landing site for the earliest Hawaiian voyagers. |
Haleakala National Park -Possibly
this is your first visit and you know not what you seek? Here! A plant so rare
it has not been described by science. Maybe you wish to hear the chants and
stories of our forbearers old and new? There! A scarlet bird with long curved
beak flits among strange trees. Maybe you come again to recapture the wonder?
Sunrise, sunset, rain, and wind all take on a new light. Each day is a new
voyage. |
The
Hawaiian Railway Society was formed in 1970 to
save what remained of Hawaii's railroad history. This
educational, non-profit organization was able to get the
remaining stretch of track on Oahu (from Ewa to Nanakuli)
placed on the State and National Registers of Historic
Sites. Today, the Society has restored about 6.5 miles
of track and is working to restore more. Three vintage
diesel locomotives have been restored to operation and
several steam locomotives have been cosmetically
restored. The famous Dillingham parlor car has been
restored and is occasionally put on track. Hawaii
has a rich history of railroading. Seven public common
carrier railroads ran on four of the islands. |

Menehune Fishpond is one of the finest examples of this type of ancient Hawaiian
aquaculture. |
