Mala Wharf / Mala Wharf / Species found at Maui Mala Wharf Island of Lānaʻi on the horizon / 05 March 2009 “Lānaʻi has been under the control of nearby Maui since before recorded history. The first inhabitants of this island may have arrived as late as the 15th century. According to the Hawaiian legends, man-eating spirits occupied the island before that time. For generations, Maui chiefs believed in these man-eating spirits. Depending on which legend one follows either the prophet Lanikāula drove the spirits from the island or the unruly Maui prince Kauluāʻau accomplished that heroic feat. The more popular myth is that the mischievous Kauluāʻau pulled up every breadfruit tree he could find on Maui. Finally his father, Kakaʻalaneo had to banish him to Lānaʻi, expecting him not to survive in that hostile place. However Kauluāʻau was able to outwit the spirits and drive them from the island. The chief looked across the channel from Maui and saw that his son’s fire continued to burn nightly on the shore, and he sent a canoe to Lānaʻi to bring the prince, redeemed by his courage and his cleverness, back home to Maui. As a reward, Kauluāʻau was given control of the island and he encouraged immigration from other islands. True to himself Kauluāʻau had, in the meantime, pulled up all the Ulu, breadfruit trees on Lānaʻi, accounting for the lack of breadfruit on that island. The name Lānaʻi is of uncertain origin, but the island has historically been called Lānaʻi o Kauluāʻau. One theory is that the phrase means “day of the conquest of Kauluāʻau.” The first people to migrate here, most likely from Maui and Molokaʻi, probably established fishing villages along the coast initially but later branched out into the interior where they raised taro in the fertile volcanic soil. During most of those times, the Moʻi of Maui held dominion over Lānaʻi. Even today, Lānaʻi is part of the County of Maui, but apparently the Maui leaders primarily left the people of Lānaʻi to their own devices. Life on Lānaʻi remained relatively calm until King Kamehameha I or Kalaniʻōpuʻu-a-Kaiamamao came over to take control, slaughtering people on every part of the island. So many were killed that when Captain George Vancouver sailed past the island in 1792, he didn’t bother to land because of Lānaʻi’s apparent lack of villages and population. It is mentioned that Lānaʻi was the favourite fishing spot of Kamehameha out of all the eight islands.

The name literally translates to the Little Cold Valley and that it was at 0 degrees according to my thermometer. It was easy to stay away from the vibrancy and saturation when you start out with this much color filling the valley. The sun was in and out of the clouds for a few minutes and then it just opened up to this. I really loved the long European sunset and the purple hues that would come to life the closer it got to the horizon.

St. Nicholas Church – Looking from Mala Strana, Prague / MCN: CWEJJ-LRM18-W7X49 Texture overlay courtesy of SkeletalMess There are three St. Nicholas churches in Prague. Construction of St. Nicholas Church at Malostranske Namesti began in 1703. This is the largest of Prague’s churches founded by the Jesuits. / St. Nicholas is the masterpiece of Christoph and Kilian Ignaz Dientzenhofer, a father and son duo who constructed many buildings during the Baroque period. Unfortunately, neither lived to see its completion. The building was finished by Kilian’s son-in-law, Anselmo Lurago. The interior of St. Nicholas is finely decorated with statues, paintings, and frescoes by leading artists of the day. Particularly impressive is the dome fresco from Franz Palko, showing The Celebration of the Holy Trinity, filling the 70m high dome. The dome was completed in 1751, shortly before Kilian Ignaz died. Over the Baroque organ is a fresco of St. Cecilia, patron saint of music. The organs were played by Mozart in 1787. The belfry was the last part to be built, constructed by Anselmo Lurago in 1751-56. During the summer months, classical concerts are held inside St. Nicholas. Text courtesy of Prague Experience
