No room for guardrails, just drive, don't look, and don't meet an oncoming car. No flats allowed.

Oops, Maui-style traffic jam! The car on the right is backing up as there is no room to pass on this cliffside road.

I had a delightful experience today when I "stumbled across" a tour of the Hindu temple being build above Kapaa on our little island of Kauai. Granite slabs are being hand-chisled in India and shipped 10,000 miles to Kauai for the construction which has been ongoing since 1991. The gold leaf dome overlays are stunning in the bright Kauai sunshine.

A new type of air conditioning system is planned for downtown Honolulu that will be a major energy saver. A local company has plans to install underground pipes running from the ocean into downtown Honolulu so that sea water can be used for cooling instead of refrigeration systems. The system is slated to be operational by 2011 with savings of around 75% on the electric bill. With Hawaii's cost of electricity being 3 times the national average, this is a very big deal.
Some challenges remain such as getting past potential public opposition which is always a possibility when change is happening. The Environmental Impact Statement is due to be filed this month. Source of this information is our local publication Pacific Business News.

I only had the cam in my Blackberry but it did a fair job of capturing an awesome sunset.
