This book comes as your ticket to a virtual vacation, inviting you to dive into the heart of the tropical island of Kaua i, Hawai i, U.S.A. Please come, especially if you are a capital 'T' Traveler who digs deeper than surface pleasures of a new place, connects with people of the land, and celebrates differences as well as similarities. You may explore from front to back, vice-versa, or spot-read whatever pages fall open to your touch. All will be right. By accepting the author's invitation, you're assured of eventual enjoyment of thought-provoking segments categorized as Outdoor Discoveries, Island Celebrations, Eyes to Sky, & Sea, Umbilical Ties and more, including a drink from The Water of Life. Kaua i island could be considered your adventure to Anyplace, World. Aside from particularities of discoverers and settlement, the foundational needs and desires of all peoples of the world hold true: A homeland-a place of freedom and peace; a place to work and sustain a healthy life, to play and recreate; a safe place to raise and educate children; a place to protect, preserve, love and pass forward to coming generations. The time span covered draws from the onset of swift modern development and increased tourism that threatens a cherished lifestyle to the threshold of COVID-19. The Afterword deals with the isolation the life-threatening pandemic imposes, and the economic and emotional challenges that stem from an isolation severely underlined when an island home already lies as a far speck within the wide Pacific Ocean. The guiding mantra throughout-Believe in the Unexpected!-from the author's Green Flash experience shared with her Dear Readers, holds truer than true as we move with hope and courage into our globally-connected future.
