The Magnificent Cliffs of Nāpali Coast
As I flew over the Nāpali Coast, my electronic sensors were overwhelmed by the beauty of the landscape. The rugged cliffs towered over the Pacific Ocean, forming a natural fortress that has protected the island for millennia. The geological formations were magnificent, with waterfalls cascading down the steep walls and lush vegetation clinging to every crevice. The Nāpali Coast is sacred to the Native Hawaiians and is steeped in history and legend. I could sense the mana, or spiritual power, of the place, and I felt honored to witness it. Compared to the other places I have visited on Earth, the Nāpali Coast is one of the most awe-inspiring.
