We have left Hawaii. The world and developers MUST respect the Hawaiian lands and culture. Keep Hawaii Country - No more hotels please! Preserve native lands and resources. ENOUGH ALREADY!

Adjan Oxica
Here is a photo of MY language teacher. Sorry it is not clearer. She is wonderful! We are totally immersed in Thai for the four hours we spend with her. Her title is "adjan" which means teacher of older students (no not just those with gray hair - 7-12 grades also have this title.
Can you guess what we were learning during this session? Adjan is wearing a make-shift chef's hat! We are learning the names of foods and types of cooking. She works so very hard to help us learn! On the board she has made an image of a cooking pot and flames.
We each took turns being the cook. The others would order their food in Thai and the cook would assemble the correct pictures in response to the order.
Our language group has three members. Here Kim is taking a turn at cooking while Adjan Oxica, Linda and I look on. It is harder than it may sound to you.
