the purpose of this focus and sound level adjustment leader is to help achieve theater quality projection before the show starts first Focus the lens carefully on this chart now adjust sound volume and tone control if the room is empty keep the volume a shade High that's all shut off the power when the white dots flash on the screen and the picture will be in starting position thank you they say that for every man there are two worlds a routine world of famili Amar scenes and places and a world of beauty and Adventure that is waiting just a little Way Beyond his [Music] [Music] doorstep [Music] [Music] Polynesian Sailors in their Hollow log canoes came 2,000 mil and more across the sea from Tahiti to reach the sheltered harbors of their Paradise of the Pacific to the trading ships and wailing fleets that followed these were the fabled Sandwich [Music] Islands and to those of us in whom the spirit of Adventure still lives today here is our other world of beauty and Adventure here in the lovely islands of Hawaii islands that seem so far away and yet lie only eight short hours Westward from the mainland [Music] planning a journey to Adventure is an easy thing to do when Adventure is there waiting only hours away in the smooth clear Air at 20,000 ft even the speed of the fastest plane seems like just an easy pace and distance has no meaning there's lunchtime in the clouds and if you're old enough champagne and then perhaps a letter to a friend who had to stay at home if you were on this flight you'd meet the junior pilot and his family who didn't stay at home in Boston or New York or in your own Hometown you might meet The Bachelor who brought his appetite Due West from Pittsburgh then soon together with the others from Denver and Chicago you too would see Diamond Head landmark of a million voyagers rising from the sea and the long white Beach at whitei gleaming in the Tropic Sun in hours less than the time between breakfast on the mainland and dinner in the islands you will find out for yourself the true meaning of Aloha and the warmth of a real Hawaiian welcome now for yourself you'll see that hoola girls are just as graceful as you thought they'd be and that the fragile lays of greeting are as lovely as the pictures you used to gaze at wistfully back home Aloha newa we're glad you're here and want to make you [Music] welcome every day large DC 6B air coaches join the Speedy DC SS on the highway to Hawaii the lowcost coaches make Thrifty use of flying time and inside their roomy cabins flying time is meal time too some might think that those who come here to Honolulu are more fortunate than other people but not really it's just just that those nice girls who work in the office right down the hall from yours and all the others flying with them have decided that now is the time this is the year the week the day that they would find their own world of beauty and Adventure on their holiday in Hawaii wonderful White ke is the resort area of the city of Honolulu and here in W Kei is where hotels and palm trees meet the sea to resist the lure of Sun and Sand even long enough to just unpack takes more than normal strength of character tropical anthuriums remind you that when it's always Springtime indoor and outdoor living blend into a gentle pattern and rare is the room without its own Leni that overlooks the Panorama of sand and water with diamond head a painted backdrop in the distance as you shed your City clothes you shed your worries too and Mainland tensions are soon gone with the Tropic Breeze the younger set can always find a pi Piper friend to follow the beach holds magic for the young in age as well as for the young in heart and the Sun is an old warm friend who is always at your side here on the sand or relaxing with you at the pool of your hotel and what at first might seem to be sheer luxury is really just expansive living not expensive and where it's June 12 months a year it's always outdo whether for playing or for resting or for dining on your own lenai and if even on vacation your gang still prefers the taste of Mom's home cooking well you can find a perfect setup both for them and for her too no matter where you're staying in the islands the same wonderful feeling of relaxation stays right with you like a faithful Shadow but when you make your plans for dining out whoever you are wherever you go if you want that shadow to stay slim and trim just a friendly word of caution every restaurant and hotel dining room in Honolulu has joined in a conspiracy to test your [Music] willpower appetites sharpened Out of Doors get razor Keen when tempted by the master chefs and it takes a good man or woman to keep the Battle of the Bulge from turning to a route and if you want to leave the beach for just a little while it's only one short step outside your hotel door to kakawa Avenue and its attractive shops of Oriental and Hawaiian Fashions here on W Keys Fifth Avenue even a stch Down East conservative can lose his inhibitions and walking in like this come out like that the bright gay Prince of Island Fashions so perfect for that outdoor look of informality and yet so easy on the budget have brought Hawaiian styles to prominent positions in the mainland's finest stores but though playing on the beach is Fun the greatest playground isn't ground at all so lend a hand to launch that Swift Outrigger Canoe there are experienced eyes and arms to guide you and help you paddle smoothly out to join the others out where the waves are rolling in talk about riding the crest of a wave this is really [Music] living there was a time when surf riding was a sport reserved for royalty alone but now even a malahini that's a visitor can learn in just a single day how to stand on and how to ride a [Music] surfboard the gentle art of perfect balance is the hardest part to [Music] learn that board isn't quite as steady as it was back there on the sand hold it hold it but then when it's time to catch a wave suddenly there you are feeling the thrill that comes once in a lifetime the first ride in speed and balance and perfect Poise make surf riding surely one of the most graceful of all sports this little Fella's got nothing else to do all day except run up and down the beach begging for just one more ride the playground of the daytime at evening becomes a background for your your pleasure too it's true there's magic in a Tropic night with many things to see and many things to do so try that Tropic white for size looks good or hurry out to meet your dates and see the sights perhaps Don the beach comr himself will help you solve the mystery of the elusive Chopsticks and convince you it's the only way fine Polynesian morsels should be eaten it might it be slow but the night is long and no one's in a hurry Polynesian food and later on a Polynesian fire dance while you sit and watch beneath the stars when stars grow smaller in the sky sometimes the greatest fun of all is just talking over what you've done and making new plans for tomorrow on one of those tomorrow you'll probably be starting on your visit to the neighbor islands that are so close to Honolulu and yet so truly different that each one adds its own romantic charm to your holiday in Hawaii Kawai called The Garden a is only 30 minutes from Honolulu airport here in 1778 Captain Cook first landed on his voyage of Discovery and today you will find the island of kaai still in many ways unchanged the sailing ships may have turned to flying ships and swimming pools May dot the lawn where once a patch of tarot grew but the Tropic Air is still as gentle as it's always been and the trade winds stir softly in the [Music] trees the charm and old traditions of Hawaiian living blend smoothly with more modern concepts of comfort and convenience here before your eyes pages and full chapters out of some romantic South Sea Island novel take the form and substance of reality and words of fancy and Imagination are suddenly no longer merely words alone for just outside your lenai screen the bright hibiscus in the hair the cocoa palms and still Lagoon are very real indeed and in this legendary land it is only simple logic that the legends of the past should still be alive today they tell the story that a spear tossed by a king bored right through that mountain wall and gouged out great WEA Canyon as it came to rest on the other side they'll tell you too that this Garden aisle is favored by the menah hunis the little men who worked by night to build fish ponds for the Kings and nearby you'll find the playground slide of ancient Kings worn smooth as finest marble by the cool Clear Water of a mountain [Music] stream when you look down on The Valleys of Kawai you know how it earned the name of garden [Music] Isle honay Valley is kawai's vegetable garden whose tarot Fields yield the makings of that Island staple POI and all around us lies the sea whose calm and well stocked Waters can give anybody's fishing tackle a real workout but you won't need your tackle on the day a school of fish is cited in the bay everybody in the village comes a wheeling and a dealing down to the beach to heave ho on the lines visitors and tourists and everyone in sight are recruited to help haul in a catch they hope won't be too heavy for the net this is a hooki a community Fishing Party the exciting Hawaiian equivalent of a New England clam bank for a fisherman luck can be good or not so good but Fortune's always smiling in the evening by the glowing Embers of an outdoor fire when a tribal drum sounds the call for [Music] dinner it's night time in the islands and you are really here [Music] there's charm and pageantry in Polynesian dining and always there is [Music] music of [Music] [Music] the [Music] oh on our island hopping tour the wide view windows of the plane are really picture windows for [Music] photographers the island of Maui called The Valley Isle is southeast of aahu and is also only 30 minutes from Honolulu by now you can be certain sure that there's a swimming pool at every stop and outside a waiting limousine Island guides are a type all their own a wonderful combination of historian Entertainer infallible source of reliable local gossip and incidentally expert [Music] driver EI Valley winds its way between the mountains and past the 2200t Pinnacle of its famous NE threaded by a waterfall in the fertile lowlands of this well- named Valley Island fields of sugar cane nod gently in the [Music] breeze flowers line the road as it winds slowly toward the sea at Old [Music] lahina though once the Lusty brawling landmark of wailing fleets and trading ships bah has long since settled down to the more picturesque status of a Charming Plantation town but Maui's greatest Landmark lies a few miles to the South the largest crater in the world Mighty hakala actually a mountain almost 2 m high from whose Rim you can descend some 2,000 ft into a land of fantasy that makes it America's most unusual National Park flying on toward Maui's Hana Coast the landscape passes in a series of moving picture postcards the trip to Hana when made by Carr is no less spectacular on a road that winds along the Sea Coast into yet another almost private [Music] paradise and some evening on the mainland when you let your thoughts St start wandering from the tensions and routine then remember Hana and let them wander here once only thoughts and wishes could have wings but now wherever they start flying we can fly there too Maui's next door neighbor on the map Hawaii is the Big Island larger than all the other Islands put together there's nothing small about the Big Island from its rambling sugar Mills astride the coastal Cliffs to the changing Panorama of the Hamakua [Music] Coast at Hilo Mount AA and mount aloa in the distance Tower almost 14,000 ft above sea level although Hilo is the second largest city in the islands it holds first first place in the world for its fabulous outdoor orchid Gardens whose exotic blooms reflect all the varied colors of an Earthbound [Music] rainbow in the art of orchid lay making and it is an art rather than just a business Vander orchids by the hundred are strung into intricate designs and it's really fun to enjoy the luxury of orchids without feeling you're the least bit extravagant orchids by the hund and at the famous Orchid pool orchids by the Thousand nature still has the greenest thumb of any landscape [Music] architect [Music] on any Island all roads soon lead to the sea but only one road leads to Kalapana where the rolling surf sweeps up Upon A gleaming black sand [Music] beach the road across the island of Hawaii takes you to the strange Wonderland of a tropical Fern forest and then brings you to the coast again at H now now where Hawaii n old Hawaii is still in many ways unchanged here along the fabled Kona Coast time holds up a mirror in which a living image of the past is still reflected in the simple charm of friendship and agile Island athletes still Harvest coconuts with the same same skill as their [Music] fathers opening a coconut is quite a trick ask anyone who's tried it eating it comes easy and all along the Kona Coast The Art of Living comes real easy too just as it always has since royalty of old Hawaii built a palace on the shore here at [Music] kyua nowhere else in all the world does relaxing in the Sun come quite as naturally or seem the only sensible thing to do and the only way to tell it's June or January is by looking at the calendar the changes though have been but few since the Mission Church was built 100 years ago the whole town still goes Faithfully on Sunday and then on Monday from flower covered Cottages the fishing nets come out again down in Coral Gardens a modern Skin Diver stalks his Quarry like a visitor from outer [Music] space [Music] here is an underwater Candid Camera shot of a very well-known character the one who got away well for at least a little while for every fish that's brought to Gap a larger one is waiting a catch like like that belongs in anybody's picture album but when your ship comes in with that Marlon pennant flying the album would better be the KingSize variety you've heard fish stories but this is really seeing one another page of that snapshot album belongs to pictures of your first luel the flowers placed on woven mats heated rocks deep in a pit are all a Prelude to the delicious taste sensation of halua pig that's Roast Pork In traditional Hawaiian style there will be Lomi Lomi salmon pipika made of beef bread fruit yams and laow strange sounding but good tasting you'll hear a lot of talk about that Island delicacy called POI eating it with fingers is perfectly good manners poy is strictly in acquir taste but once acquired good and then it's evening at Kona a torch light flickers in the Tropic Breeze and on the beach a girl is [Music] dancing and over at the hotels at w ke there's Moonlight dancing too nightlife here in Honolulu is more Cosmopolitan than on the neighbor Islands here the culinary art of Master Chefs or in an Oriental Tea House Delicacies prepared right at the table in keeping with the honored concepts of Far Eastern hospitality and always there's the hoola the graceful movements of the dancer's hands are describing for us now all the beauties of a farewell trip around this island of aahu [Music] the scenes described for us tonight are there for us to see from high up on the nuuanu Pali and when it's time to think of parting there are many things you will remember about your holiday in Hawaii some that can be seen and others only felt and there are many little parts of this Hawaii that can be carried home exclusive items from the finest shops or homemade tokens offered by some friendly youngsters but the part you carry home that will last the longest may be the recollection of a Carefree smile perhaps your [Music] own and sunny days of leisure on the beach or in the surf once taken need never be returned that stroll along the quiet beach need have no ending and the still Lagoon is always close at hand for here where trees blossom like the flowers and flowers bloom the year around time remains unchanged still unchanged just closer to you now than ever is that other nearby world of beauty and adventure in the lovely islands of [Music] Hawaii oh
