Some Photos from Two Weeks in Hawaii

I spent two weeks in Honolulu in March 2024. This time I just took my Leica SL2, a relatively new Leica APO-Summicron-SL 50mm F/2 ASPH and a Peak Design CF travel tripod. I found it a bit of a heavy carry on longer walks. The set-up, however, did not let me down. I stayed within easy walking distance of Ala Moana Beach Park where I like to swim for about 50 mins each day and it is a great place…

Kauai Island Itinerary: 4 Day Kauai Itinerary

In my most recent post I discussed the need for change, in case you missed it: How to Let Go of Everything to Find It All: A Manual from a Girl Wondering. Chickpeameatball has always primarily been a space for travel content. I’m proud of my work, but I can admit when things aren’t in alignment anymore. My writing style has changed. My interest and passions have shifted. I will always be a…

"Eddie Would Go" How to Help the Displaced of Maui

I've re-blogged an editorial cartoon by Clay Jones about the Lahaina, Hawai'i fire and provided a link to an article that lists charitable organizations and links to their donations pages. Please help those displaced by these devastating fires.

If you’re like me, and I know not many people are, but this time, maybe, just maybe, many of us have had a similar response, so if you’re like me, you are horrified by the Maui fires and the utter destruction of Lahaina, Hawai’i by wildfires. Lahaina is a city of 12,000 people. It burned completely to the ground. Razed more thoroughly than Genghis Khan and his might hordes could do in his…

Look! Up in the sky! It's a bird! It's an airplane! It's...

A Japanese telescope positioned on top of Mauna Kea, a dormant volcano on the Big Island of Hawaii, captured video of an eerie flying spiral in the night sky on Jan. 18. In the video, a small bright spot appears and slowly gets brighter and starts to dissipate into a spiral before getting small again and…

Media Update 6/15/23

Instinct (2018) I recently got Paramount+ and I was looking for fun stuff to watch and this popped up. A former CIA agent who has become a professor gets back in the game by becoming a police consultant. The show stars Alan Cumming, an actor I have always adored, who plays a fascinating character who is both quirky and dramatic. He uses a study of abnormal psychology and his well-honed instincts…

Victim Of Circumstance

Aloha kākou. On Sunday, April 14th, 8:46 PM HST, Hawai’i Electric Light Company (HELCO) posted it will initiate rolling electrical outages on Hawaii Island tonight due to generator shortfall. HELCO uses Unsocial Media sites to post alerts and notifications. My power went out at 9 PM, just fifteen minutes later, and was eventually restored at 9:25 PM.

Buying lottery tickets...what's $2 and a dream?

Do you buy lottery tickets? Do you check them right away? For me: yes and no. That was yes, I buy lottery tickets and no, I do not check them right away.Whenever I buy one, PSM asks “did you check the ticket yet?” “have you checked your numbers yet?” Um, not yet, I will. I know it sounds crazy, but…the longer I wait to check the ticket, the longer the dream stays alive that we might have won!…

What Hawaii Had to Teach Us in Our Visit

Hawai'i, and particularly the "Big Island" area around the town of Honoka'a, has preserved many of the customs of the culture of the Islands. On our recent visit we were reminded of this fact and the dearth of shared tradition today on the "mainland".

The Yellow Billed Cardinal, so unlike the Northern Cardinal we are accustomed to, is comparable to the Java Sparrow, the Zebra Dove and the Saffron Finch in their colorful variations of familiar “mainland” birds. During my second visit on the “Big Island” of Hawai’i, in the checkout line at the Malama Market in Honoka’a the cashier addressed me as “Uncle”.  It was not the first time a young…

Hawaiier sind nicht nur intelligent, sie sind auch schlau. Von allen Kulturen, mit denen sie zusammenkommen, suchen sie sich das heraus, was sie für ihre Zwecke gebrauchen können.

Als Seefahrervolk sind sie unterwegs und kennen andere Kulturen.

Ebenso kommen Vertreter anderer Kulturen auf ihre Inseln – nicht immer friedlich. Die Haiwaiier saugen diese Kulturtechniken auf. Dadurch sparen sie Ressourcen und müssen das Rad nicht neu erfinden. Aus dem Angebot nehmen sie sich das Beste und Praktischste heraus, was in ihre Weltanschauung passt.

Sie kleiden sie westlich, lassen sich sogar im Fotostudio ablichten. Sie übernehmen die Uniformen der westlichen Einwanderer, schmücken sie aber mit einer Stickerei ihrer Taroblüten und Farnblätter aus. Sie übernehmen mit Eifer die Schrift. Sofort optimieren sie das Alphabet auf ihre Lautsprache. Sie fügen ihm noch zwei Buchstaben hinzu, die nicht vorhanden waren. Ihre Herrschaftspolitik ähnelt der europäischen. Der Adel begründet seine Herrschaft mit der göttlichen Abstammung und die Untertanen haben den Anweisungen des Adels zu gehorchen.

Den Europäern und später den Amerikanern begegnen sie auf Augenhöhe.

Schon James Cook empfangen 1778 sie auf hoher See mit kostbaren Gastgeschenken. Als der sich daneben benimmt, wird es selbst den toleranten Hawaiiern zu bunt. 1779 findet er seinen Seemannstod vor der Küste von Hawai’i.

Ansonsten sind die Hawaiier sind nicht nachtragend. Später empfangen sie Otto von Kotzebue mit allen diplomatischen Ehren. Gäste wie der Heinrich von Preußen, Sohn Friedrichs III, werden ebenso empfangen, Gastgeschenke ausgetauscht. Viele dieser Zeugnisse hawaiischer Kultur befinden sich heute noch in unseren Museen. Hawaiier unterhalten diplomatische Beziehungen nach England, Frankreich und selbst nach den einzelnen deutschen Ländern wie dem Königreich Württemberg. Ihre Toleranz fremden Einflüssen gegenüber geht so weit, dass auch Nicht-Hawaiier in die höchsten Ämter bekleiden.

Diese Toleranz wird ihnen schließlich zum Verhängnis.

Gegen das Machtstreben und Landeinnahme der Europäer und Amerikaner sind sie schutzlos. Seit dem 7. Juli 1898 gehört Hawai’i als 50er Bundesstaat zu den Vereinigten Staaten von Amerika.

Dagegen mehrt sich seit den 70-Jahren des letzten Jahrhunderts der Widerstand. Leider findet er nicht so viel Gehör. Nach Art der Hawaiier ist er nicht laut und aggressiv, sondern leise und diplomatisch.

Verkürzt lasst sich die Geschichte Hawaiis so auf den Punkt bringen:

Der Klügere gibt nach. Solange, bis er der Dümmere ist.
