The People of Hawaii
have fought to preserve
the Ka Iwi Coastline
of East Oahu.
Feels like driving
the edge of eternity.
Feels like driving
the edge of eternity.
Magnificent churning waters, foaming, leaping!
Coves, crevices, a fountaining Blow Hole.
President Obama came here as a boy.
Kamehameha the Great
landed his war canoes here
on his conquest of Oahu.
Ka Iwi means: "The Bones"
You can commune with the bones
of the island itself,
and perhaps discover
your own spine,
or even if you
possess one.
Ka Iwi means: "The Bones"

It is a vast space
that also feels intimate
and eternal
while very much
in the moment.
People
from all over the world
stop to admire
Ka Iwi

On a clear day,
you can see the isle of Moloka`i,
and sometimes even Lanai
as above.
Voyagers in sailing canoes
inhabited these islands.
It is a place
for solitude,
sightseeing,
for friends.
Humans are dwarfed,
as in Asian art.
" Here shall be
eternal summer
in the grateful heart. "

The more I see of your beautiful coastline it reminds me of ours also Cloudia...we have the same need to protect and preseve.
Would indeed be a beautiful place to ride a motorcycle.
I hope I get to see Ka Iwi someday. But if I don't at least i saw it here. Thanks Claoudia.
You live in paradise Cloudia! Wow, such fab photos. And I loved that woman's top in the last one, the color was amazing.
Happy Week, G
Very beautiful!
You have captured Oahu coastline beautifully.
Nice view! Just got back from Kauai, it seems to me Oahu has more places to see.
We always pass by there when we decide to do our 'round da island drives every once in a blue moon. It is beautiful and so far away.
It's not at all difficult to see why people fall in love with this place. Lovely, Cloudia.
Oh my. How beautiful. Thank you.
Thanks for sharing with us this beautiful place.Nice video and pictures. Kisses from Italy
