My husband is from Colorado so the first time he came to Hawaii he
wanted to boogie board. So my younger brother and I took him to
Sherwood's to learn on baby waves. A few feet away from us was a tour
group with all haoles learning from a BIG local Hawaiian guy how to
boogie board. A wave came and took my husband under water for a few
seconds and he came up spitting out water when I hear the local tour
guide yell, "Eh, you...you supposed to be ova hea NOT far away ova dea!"
My husband didn't know what to do as he stood in the water clenching his
board fearful of his near drowning experience and fear from the look the
Hawaiian guy gave him. I was laughing so hard and finally yelled to the
tour guide that he was with me. the Hawaiian tour guide grabbed his
belly and started laughing with me at the look on my husband's face. I
told him later, "Really honey, local people are NOT like the movie
'North Shore'". ~ Erin May |

We live in California although I was born and raised in Honolulu. During
my first trip to Maui with my in-laws, I sat on the living room floor
watching TV. My mother-in-law came over and softly asked me, "May I get
you a chair?". I said, "No thanks and thought it was quite funny. ~
