IHumuhumunukunukuapua'a ligama leentlanzi zaseburhulumenteni zaseHawaii. Yintlanzi entle enamanzi amancinci, eneepinstripes ezimthubi kunye nomlomo ohlaza okwesibhakabhaka, kodwa ndicinga ukuba amaHawaii ayikhethile kuba igama layo kuyonwabisa ukuyithetha. Ndakhomba kwaye ndizama ukuyikhwaza kwi-snorkel yam. Ukuba igama linzima ukubiza phantsi kweemeko eziqhelekileyo, kunzima phantsi kwamanzi.

Umfazi wam, uKim, kunye nathi salandela iintlanzi zingena ziphuma kwiintloko zekholifulawa, ngelifu le-surgeonfish enemigca kunye nezikolo ezijikeleza iitang ezimthubi. Sigqithe i-parrotfish, eyasityumza isidlo sakusasa seekorale kakhulu ukuze siyive. Inkqubo ye- kule igcinwe isantya esinesidima. Sakhaba ngakwilitye lekorale, elawela kumbala oluhlaza okwesibhakabhaka, saza saya ngaphandle kwiqela lamatye apho uqhushululu lwaqhekeka khona lwaya kuba ngamadubu. Xa siphakamisela iintloko zethu emoyeni, sabona amawa amnyama eentaba-mlilo zentshona Lanai, amathambeka aluhlaza enyuka emva kwawo, kunye neentsika ezimnyama ze-basalt ezaziwa ngokuba ziiSisters ezintlanu ezazinqumla ulwandle.

Kwakuphakathi ku-Novemba, kwaye sasihamba uhambo lweveki olwasisa kwiziqithi ezine zaseHawaii: iMolokai, iLanai, iMaui, neHawaii, i-Big Island. Ukhenketho lwaluqhutywa ngu Unventure Adventures , Eli ligama elingaqhelekanga kwinkampani eneminyaka engama-22 ubudala eqhuba uhambo olusuka eAlaska luye kwiiGalpagos Islands, kodwa a ivela kumzamo wokwahluka kweminye imigca. I-UnCruise iyazingca ngokuguquguquka. Ayizibopheleli kwiminxeba yezibuko ehleliweyo, ukuze uhambo lube nokukhokelwa yimozulu, izilwanyana zasendle, kunye ne-whim. Ukuba ukapteni ubona umngxuma weempuphu, unokulandela; ukuba ufuna ukuphonononga icandelo elinomdla elunxwemeni angazange alibone, angakwenza oko.

UnCruise ichaza inqanawa yethu, Uhambo lwe-Safari , njenge yacht ye boutique; ithwala kuphela abakhweli abangama-36. Yenzelwe intuthuzelo kunye nokuzonwabisa. Ihamba ngeenqanawa ezimbini ezinama-24 eenyawo, ezinokuzisa ii-snorkelers kufutshane nonxweme, kwaye zinee-kayaks kunye neepaddleboards. Iikhabhi ziyaphola kwaye zinamacwecwe eetsheri, kwaye nganye iza nesibini seebinoculars ezingangeni manzi. Ukutya kumnandi kakhulu, kwaye uninzi lwezithako zalo zifunyenwe apha ekhaya.

Iihambo zimalunga nokuzibandakanya nomhlaba kunye nezilwanyana zasendle. Zikwadibana nabantu bendawo, esiyenzileyo kubusuku bethu bokuqala. Kumdlalo we-hula eMolokai, isiqithi esinabemi abambalwa apho abaninzi bakholelwa ukuba uhlobo lomdaniso lwazalwa kwiinkulungwane ezadlulayo, sabukela njengoko amantombazana ali-10 ajikeleza kunye emculweni, epeyinta imifanekiso ngezandla zabo. Intombazana encinci, ekufuneka ukuba yayineminyaka esixhenxe ubudala, yakhwaza Yeentyatyambo , Oko kuthetha ngenxa yentyatyambo. Emva koko bayila iintyatyambo ngeminwe yabo, bafikelela elangeni, kwaye bazisa izandla zabo ezintliziyweni zabo. Indinike oko abantu bendawo bakubiza ngokuba lulusu lwenkukhu, okanye amaqhuqhuva erhanisi.

Ngentsasa elandelayo, emva kwesidlo sakusasa sikhwele, sakhwela isikhephe saya kwizibuko saya kwindawo ephezulu ejonge indawo apho iNtaba yeHalawa idibana khona nolwandle. Intili inqumleza isiphelo esingasempuma seMolokai; imxinwa kwaye inamathambeka kwaye igqunywe ngamahlathi ashinyeneyo. Umjelo ophuma emithini uyokungena engxoweni ekhuselekileyo enamawa olwandle. Xa sijika saza salanda le ntlambo, sayibona siphela eludongeni lweentaba kunye nomsonto wempompo.

Abantu basePolynesia kwaziwa ukuba bafika kuqala eHawaii kulo mlambo — indawo yokucima umlilo entlanjeni yaqala ngo-AD 600. Kwindawo yokufihla intloko kufutshane nomlambo, uAnakala Pilipo Solatorio, umfama oneminyaka engamashumi asixhenxe oyinzala ngqo yabo bahlali bokuqala, wavuthela ikhonkco yegobongo yokwamkela. UPilipo nonyana wakhe uGreg benze iphulo lokugcina iindlela zakudala nolwimi ziphila. U-Pilipo ucinezele ibunzi kunye nempumlo kutyelelo ngalunye kumbuliso wesiko. Uye wathi masikhefuzele. Ngale ndlela, wathi, abantu ababini bayatshintshana ha, impefumlo yobomi.

Isiqingatha seqela sahlala kwindawo yokuhlala elwandle, kwaye abanye bethu bahamba iikhilomitha ezimbalwa ukuya engxangxasi. Sidlule kwimithi emikhulu ye-koa, ebixatyiswa ngabenzi bamaphenyane kangangeenkulungwane. I-shamas emhlophe-emhlophe yacula eluphahleni. Umzila wawuzele sisiqhamo senkanuko kunye namantongomane e-kukui, atyebile kakhulu abantu basePolynesia bokuqala babatshisa ngokukhanya. Ehlathini kwakubaleka udonga lwamatye lwetempile yamandulo enemihlaba esixhenxe.

U-Dai Mar Tamarack, inkokeli yethu yokundwendwela, wakhomba ilitye eligudileyo iMolokaians libona lingcwele; iminyaka engaphezulu kwewaka abafazi beyizala. Oku kwandenza ndacinga ngendlela iHawaii ngokwayo eyazalwa ngayo isuka elwandle. Uqhekeko kuqweqwe lomhlaba lwakhupha umagma kwinto ekubizwa ngokuba ziijoloji yindawo eshushu, ukudala iziqithi. Ukuhamba kwamacwecwe etectonic kuthwala iziqithi kwicala elisemantla ntshona, kwaye kusenjalo. Le nkqubo ivela kwi-2,400 yeekhilomitha ukusuka kumhlaba osondeleyo, kwaye nantoni na efikile apha-isityalo, isilwanyana, okanye umntu-wenze umzamo omkhulu wokwenza njalo.

Ngomhla wesithathu safika eLanai, ephantse ibe yeyabanini beOracle uLarry Ellison. Emva kohambo lwethu lokuloba nge-snorkeling kunye neentlanzi zikarhulumente, sahamba sijikeleza isixeko esincinci saseLanai, esibekwe kwindawo yemithi yeCook Island Pines kwaye, kwindawo ephakame kangange-1,600 yeenyawo, ipholile kwaye ipholile. Simise kwivenkile ethengisa ubugcisa obenziwe ngabantwana besikolo basekuhlaleni saze sathenga ufudo lwaselwandle olwenziwe ngamaqokobhe.

Ezinxulumene : Iinqanawa ezi-10 eziphezulu zokuhamba ngenqanawa elwandle

Ngobo busuku kwithala leencwadi leenqanawa, uDave Simonak, ugqirha oneminyaka engama-63 waseTexas, wadlala iingoma zikaJames Taylor kwikatala endala, njengoko ndandithetha ngeencwadi noLyn Bixby, intatheli ethathe umhlala-phantsi kunye neBhaso likaPulitzer elihlala kumantla eVermont. . Umfazi kaLyn, uDebbie Bixby, umongikazi, wayefumana umyalezo wokuncoma kwenye indawo yenqanawa. Abakhweli esisebenza nabo ubukhulu becala babezizibini kwaye babeneminyaka yobudala ukusuka kumashumi amabini ukuya kumashumi amathandathu. Senze umdlalo kunye neqela elinomdla, elinikezelwe ekuchitheni ixesha elininzi ngaphandle kangangoko.

Inqanawa yawela ijelo ukuya UMaui Ngobusuku nje obunye, savuka kwiintaba ezinamanzi aluhlaza nophahla olubomvu oluphantsi lwezibuko laseLahaina. Saphinda saphinda saphinda sangena kwi-Mala Wharf, eyadilizwa ngo-1992 yiNkanyamba u-Iniki. Isikhephe eside sawa esiwombeni ngethayile yemiqadi kunye namatye ekhonkrithi. Ngoku igutyungelwe ziikorale, iye yaba yenye yezona ndawo zaziwayo zokuntywila eHawaii. Mna noKim sanxiba iimaski zethu kwaye saqubha ngaphezulu. Ndothukile: Ufudo lwaselwandle lwabantu abadala olude lwaphumla iinyawo ezili-15 ezantsi kwisiqwengana sekhonkrithi esicaba. Eyona inkulu kufuneka ukuba ibenobunzima obufana nobokubuyela umva komgca. UKim wajonga omnye edada ngaphezulu, emva koko wabhenela ecaleni kwakhe ngemivumbo emithathu elula yamaphiko ayo amade angaphambili. UKim kuye kwafuneka azenzele ngokwakhe ukuze angayichukumisi. Ufudo lwaphefumla lwaza lwenjenjeya ukubuyela ebhedini yalo.

Ndiphefumle ngokwam kwaye ndazijongela phantsi ngokungacacanga. Ngaphantsi kwesilayiti sekhonkrithi, i-whitetip reef shark eyimitha ezintlanu ubude yasebenza kwaye yandibukela. Kwakubonakala ngathi umoya we-aloha unwenwela elwandle, kuba sibulisile kwaye sonwabile sahamba.

UDai Mar usixelele ukuba sithathe iiyure ezimbalwa zokuhamba elunxwemeni, kanye xa siyifuna. Mna noKim sasihamba sihamba ngesandla kwiivenkile zaseLahaina saza sathenga — yintoni enye? —Ihempe zikaHawaiian namacici kamama weeperile.

Enye yezinto ezizodwa malunga ne-UnCruise ngumgaqo-nkqubo ovulekileyo webhulorho. Abakhweli banokubhadula nanini na kwaye bahlala nomphathi okanye amagosa bafunde ngale ndlela. Ukuba amagosa afuna ubumfihlo, bayawuvala umnyango.

Ekuseni ngosuku lwesihlanu ndathatha ikomityi yekofu yaseKona kwigumbi lokuphumla ndenyuka ndaya kwibhulorho. Umoya odumileyo wasempuma mpuma wawukhe wakhwela, kwaye inqanawe yayiqengqeleka kukudumba kwekota kwiAlalakeiki Channel phakathi kweMaui kunye nesiqithi esincinci, esingahlali bantu saseKahoolawe. UCaptain Winston Warr wayeqhuba. Sasisiya ngasemzantsi-mpuma kwaye sasibona intaba-mlilo yaseMolokini ngaphambili. Amanzi amnyama omjelo atshitshiswa aba mhlophe. Ukubuyela emva ngeyure enye, utshilo umphathi. Isiqingatha seekhilomitha kwisaphetha sethu se-starboard, ilifu lenkungu laphephezela amaza. Emva koko enye. Umnenga wawubaleka ngokukhawuleza kwintloko enye. Kwaye emva koko, ngaphandle kokuqhekeka, yaphula. Umjukujelwa omkhulu omnyama watsiba kwaye wawela phantsi, wathumela uqhushumbo lomhlophe.

Yinto engagugiyo, utshilo umphathi.

Ngentsasa elandelayo safika kwicala elingasentshona leBig Island. Sazibophelela kwindawo eneentaba-mlilo ezingalaliyo iMauna Kea neMauna Loa, nganye kuzo iphakama ngaphezu kweenyawo ezili-13,000. Izikhokelo zaqhekeza i-kayaks, kwaye sabheqa ngapha nangapha kwamagqabantshintshi ngodaka lwentaba-mlilo. Sabona iziqhwala eziluthuthu zibambelele kwilitye elimnyama. Iinyoni ezimhlophe zetropiki, ezinemisila emide, elandelwayo, zaphaphazela zaphuma ezindlwaneni zazo emaweni. UDebbie noLyn zizandla ezindala kwi-kayaking, kwaye babethelela ukuvumelanisa okugqibeleleyo, bejongeka njengesidalwa esinamaphiko. Ndizamile ukuphakama ndawela ngaphakathi. Emva kwinqanawa, sitsale isidlo sasemini uphambene , isitaki esingenakulinganiswa serayisi, inyama yenkomo, kunye ne-gravy efakwe iqanda elibiweyo. Emva koko, u-Dai Mar wawisa i-gangplank kwiindawo eziphakamileyo kwaye abanye bethu bazama ukubuyela umva ngeenyawo ezingama-20.

Ngorhatya lomhla wethu wokugqibela, xa kurhatyela kwidolophu yaseKailua-Kona, satsala iisuti ezimanzi saza sahamba ngaselunxwemeni. Mna noKim satsiba emanzini ayinki saza saqubha saya kwibhodi yokusefa eyayinokukhanya kokuntywila okukhazimla ukusuka emazantsi ayo. Abathandathu kuthi babambelela kwibhodi enye, kwaye uMark, omnye wabapheki bethu, wasiqhwalela ekukhanyeni kokukhanya kwezikhukula. Ezi zibane zazihlala kumgangatho wolwandle, kwaye i-scuba divers yayihlala ijikeleze kubo ngokungathi kukomlilo omninzi. Iiplamu zazo zamaqamza zenyuka kwiikholamu ezimangalisayo. Izikolo zeeflegi zeflegi zaye zangqengqa kwimiqadi eyayikhanyisa ezantsi kwiibhodi zokusefa. Sasiva ukunqakraza kwesibini seehlengesi ezinkulu zebhotile njengoko babenqumla kwi-murk.

Kwaye ke ndabona ukuba kutheni sonke silapho. Izibane, zombini kwiibhodi nakulwandle, zitsala iplankton, ethi imitha yelanga itye njengepopcorn. Into ethile yatsala iliso lam, ndaza ndajonga emva kwelinye lamalampu ezikhukhula phantsi ematyeni. Ndabona amaphiko amade kakhulu kunayo nayiphi na intaka, kodwa ashukuma ngokuneziqu. Ilitha eliphantsi ngaphantsi. Baye bandikhumbuza ngeengalo ezingapheliyo zabadanisi be-hula, maxa wambi iintshukumo zabo zikhuthazwa zizidalwa zolwandle.

Imitha yelanga imele ukuba ibiziimitha ezili-10 ukunqumla. Yayihamba ngaphezulu kokukhanya kwaye yayicima, emva koko yanyamalala elwandle imnyama kwaye ayinakuchazwa njengokulala.
