Interesting clouds, interesting diversity of land use. This shot was
taken from the edge of the rim of Diamondhead, the extinct (hopefully)
volcano that dominates much of the island visually.

Looking East.

Bert, wanna play local? Say "looking Koko Head" (from Diamond Head)
If you're looking west, say "Ewa" (from Diamond Head.) If your
looking east and you're Ewa of Diamond Head, you say "Diamond Head."
To the ocean, it's makai. Towards the mountains, it's mauka.

I was right, I just used the Haoli word.

And it's pronounced "Eva" (a "W" between two vowels is pronounced like
a "V" thus Hawai'i is correctly pronounced "Havai'i"

Depends upon when you lived there and how you were being taught in
school. BTW, my grandmother is a graduate of Punahou High School.

Kevin, I lived in Hawaii for three years. I know a little about the
state and the islands and their landmarks. And, I know quite a bit about
the beaches all along the southern coast.

When you lived there and went to the beach, did the horizon list about 4
degrees to starboard, or did that just start happening within the last year
or so? I don't recall it looking like that when I was last there, but
apparently that was the state of things when you-know-who graced the island
with his presence.
