Two Wheels / One Board
A surfboard is to waves
as wings are to wind.
" In matters of conscience,
the law of majority
has no place. "
Mahatma Gandhi
Even vintage "Woody" carries a surf board
"You must not think me
necessarily foolish
because I am facetious,
nor will I consider
you necessarily
wise because
you are grave."

Waikiki HAS opportunities for folks of different
ability levels to surf:
"I discovered early that the hardest thing to overcome is not a physical disability but the mental condition which it induces. The world, I found, has a way of taking a man pretty much at his own rating. If he permits his loss to make him embarrassed and apologetic, he will draw embarrassment from others. But if he gains his own respect, the respect of those around him comes easily."
Alexander de Seversky
"Disability is not a brave struggle
or ‘courage
in the face of adversity.’
Disability is an art.
It’s an ingenious way
to live."
Neil Marcus

"You know who you are"
Ah, the Parrot Guy and his working birds.
He covers you in birds,
the birds squawk and pose
while he, or your pals
snap pics for your
Facebook/Blog/Instagram.
You pay him.
Repeat.
Wings of the Islands
Inter-Island Airways incorporated
30th of January, 1929
with one aircraft:
a Bellanca CH-300 Pacemaker
(That still flies! LINK)
providing sightseeing flights of Honolulu,
Diamond Head, the cliffs, fields, coasts of O'ahu.
Hawaiian Air Lines
has come a LONG way! Flying
not only our Hawaii,
but mainland and foreign destinations as well.
HAL ALWAYS tops the "On Time" Stats!
If you go to Pago Pago
you will enjoy HAL.
And if you have the option,
perhaps to Japan,
TAKE it.
Inside the plane
is Hawaiian territory.

of this world
