Our Isla nd Home

Landfall Hawaii—\t is night. The oce^^ is dark. We have been fl>ing for liours ui % inky blackness, suspended in air by the gracc of God and the power of a jet engine. Suddenly, very suddenly, below us diere are lights n\inkling in the void—hundreds, "J thousands of lights. There are people here in the middle of the ocean, in the dark of nighty, and they have prepared a landing place forus.jWithli^ts to guide us in. Hawaii glistens like a jewel set in black velvet.
Approaching these remote islands on die face of thc^arth by niglit is always like ¦ diat-^a bit miraculous. Finding land where no land should be, experiencing discovery, receiving the place as a gift is forever the experience of coming to Hawaii.
The Islands were born in fire, tar from human eyes. For eons;, might)' volcanoes beneath the ocean's surface spewed forth molten lava and rock from the middle of the Earth, forming pillows of land, one ; mounded on top of the other, until finally, in a fiery burst with towering columns of smoke and great clouds of steam, Hawaii emerged from the waves.
