K-115-25 - Hawaii: The Moana Hotel and Waikiki Beach seen from the Royal Hawaiian Hotel, Oct. 2, 1954
Coral found on Hawaii beach. Visitors are not suppose to remove rocks from Hawaii (or supposedly will suffer the wrath of Pele). So I took photos instead.
This series of sunset shots was taken while on a sunset dinner cruise off the coast of the Hawaiian Island of Oahu.
The Postcard
A Northwest Airlines postcard which was posted in Pretoria on the 31st. January 1952.
On the back the publishers have printed:
'Hawaii is a land of year-round
sunshine - the Paradise of the
Pacific.
Only Northwest Airlines flies
luxurious 75-passenger
Stratocruisers across the
Mainland from Coast to Coast
via the Northwest scenic route,
and then on to Hawaii direct.
It is the famous 'Hawaiian Express'
Stratocruiser service.
Visit all the islands on your
Hawaiian holiday - there's more
to do - more to see - and you can
be there tomorrow from your
home, via Northwest Airlines'.
Rolf Norberg
So what else happened on the day that the card was posted?
Well, on Thursday the 31st. January 1952 Rolf Norberg, a former professional tennis player from Sweden, was born.
He partnered Bjorn Borg to win the Scandinavian Indoor Championship's doubles title in Helsinki in 1973.
Hanalei ist ein schöner Kontrast zu den Prunkbauten von Princeville, ein kleiner Ort mit alten Holzhäusern, Geschäften und Restaurants entlang der Hauptstraße. Der Ort, ehemals Walfänger- und Handelshafen, war in den 60'er Jahren das Versteck vieler Aussteiger aus Kalifornien, Hippies, die vom Verkauf ihrer Malerei und Skulpturen lebten. Ein Mini-Supermarkt, eine Schule und eine Bar versorgten die Einwohner mit dem Nötigsten. Hier starten auch jeden Morgen die Schlauchbootfahrten an die abgelegene Na Pali Coast.
