Walking Hakalau

The Aloha Buddha film viewing was very well attended.  There must have been over 50 people in the Hakalau Jodo.  The producer was present to give a short presentation.  Paauilo Mauka was well represented, and I saw many friends at the show.  The history (and the effects of intervening events) was very interesting.  Hawaii does indeed change everything.  I'm reading the Song of the Dodo and learning about island biodiversity.

After the viewing I took a drive down to the water.  Will post pics of the amazing bridge, and the beautiful water when I download it.

Then went door to door (very very wet) down Chin Chuck Road, and then up Kulaiwi Road, up and up and up.   Lots of agriculture going on up there.  Talked with the famers tending fields about their crops.

And then met with Lisa to give her a banner to put up, and sat through the Catholic mass! It was very interesting and mystical.   A very long day.  Made oatmeal cookies and carrot bread for a coffee hour tomorrow.
