ʻO ka moku maikaʻi, nā keʻena lousy

Auwe, ʻo ia ka ʻōlelo hoʻoholo a ka Miami Herald, ka nūpepa kūlanakauhale o ka ʻoihana holo moku.

Ma ke kaupaona ʻana i ka moku hou i ka lā Lāpule i kahi loiloi lōʻihi, ua ʻōlelo ʻo Herald's Jay Clarke i nā mea loiloi ʻē aʻe i hōʻike i ka haʻalulu i ka hoʻolālā maikaʻi ʻole o nā keʻena ʻo Queen Victoria.

Wahi a Clarke, "ʻaʻohe mea huki o ka mōʻīwahine."

ʻOiai ʻaʻole pololei kēlā, e like me kā Clarke e kuhikuhi nei, ua kokoke loa. "ʻO ka nui loa o ka stateroom ʻano, he hale pā hale, ʻelua wale nō mea huki huki, hoʻokahi ma lalo o nā papa liʻiliʻi ʻelua," wahi a Clarke. “Ma ke keʻena kikowaena ʻehā mau papa, akā noho ʻia kekahi e ka palekana, ʻo kekahi me nā uluna keu. Hoʻohana ʻia ʻelua mau papa nui ʻē aʻe i loko o nā keʻena no ka mālama ʻana i nā lole ola.

Ua ʻōlelo pololei ʻo Clarke, "ʻaʻole lawa ka mālama ʻana no ka holo ʻana i ka hopena pule, ʻoi aku ka liʻiliʻi o ka holo ʻana o ka honua holoʻokoʻa he 105 mau pō, ʻoiai inā ʻoe e hoʻomoe i nā uluna a me nā lole ola ma lalo o nā moena."

E hoʻomanaʻo ʻo Cruise Loggers ʻaʻole wau i paʻa wale i nā keʻena o Victoria, ʻoiai, i koʻu huakaʻi ʻana iā ia i Dekemaba, ʻo kaʻu mea hoʻopiʻi nui ʻo ka ho-hum beige a me ke gula. Akā, ua hoʻonanea ʻia au e nā wahi ākea o ka poʻe Cunard hou, i hoʻolālā maikaʻi ʻia - a me he mea lā ʻo Clarke pū kekahi.

"ʻO nā kumulāʻau waiwai, nā waihoʻoluʻu ʻulaʻula, nā papahele marble ma kekahi mau wahi a me nā lako ʻono e hāʻawi i kahi aura o ka nani haʻahaʻa i ka moku," i kākau ai ka luna hoʻoponopono huakaʻi mua o ka Herald, nāna i nānā i nā moku no nā makahiki he mau makahiki. "He mālie a maikaʻi ka lawelawe, e like me ka moʻomeheu Pelekane."

Ua kapa pū ʻo Clarke i ka hale kiʻiʻoniʻoni o ka moku he "wahi kupanaha," a ua hoʻohauʻoli ʻo ia e pili ana i kāna hale ʻaina Todd English, ma waena o nā mea pono ma luna o ka moku.
