'O nā hui nui o Italia ma ke kai

I waena o nā Pākehā a me nā Lūkini, ua kaulana loa nā kūkele o'Elia ma ke kai. 'O nā mea a pau he'oko'a a he ho'okahi,'o kēlā me kēia mea nona nā'ano like'ole a me nā mea aloha, no laila, e hele ana i kekahi o nā kūlanakauhale o kēia'āina hikina, ma mua, e ho'oma'ama'a'oe iā'oe iho me kāna mau hana. Ua holoi'ia'o Italia e nā kai'ehā. Ke hō'ike'ia nei kēia mau loko i kekahi a i'ole kekahi o nā hi'ohi'ona, a ke mana'o nei mākou e nānā i nā kumuhana nui e hiki ai iā'oe ke ho'onohonoho i kāu mau huaka'i huaka'i huaka'i.

'O nā palena o Italia ma ke kai mai ka'āina'ākau o Liguria. Ma laila kahi holoi'ia o nā'auwai e ke kai o ka inoa ho'okahi, ua kāwili'ia nā'āina me nā māla uliuli me nā lā'au li'ili'i, kahi i kanu'ia ai nā kūlanakauhale a me nā kūlanakauhale. 'O ke kikowaena o ka moku'āina'o ia ke kūlanakauhale'o Genoa - kahi pilikino e ola nei, kahi e hiki ai iā'oe ke mahalo i nā hale pule kahiko, nā hale hau'oli a me nā pā hale i ho'olako'ia i kēia manawa. 'O ke kai ma'ane'i ka mahana ma loko o nā mahina kauwela, a ua mahana ka ea i 30 mau. He mea pono e ho'omaopopo i ke kahakai o Liguria ma kahi kokoke i ka palena Farani a kokoke i Nice, no laila, he kūpono ka lewa. 'O nā hale kū'ai a me nā hale kū'ai maika'i loa ka mea i loko o nā kai moana o kēia māhele.

'O ka'ao'ao e hiki mai ana'o Tuscany ia, kahi o nā hōkele kahiko o Italia. Ma ke kai, kahi e holoi'ia e kēia mau kapa, hele i kēlā me kēia makahiki e'ike i nā hōkū o ke ao holo'oko'a, a me nā malihini kipa nui e loa'a ai kahi ho'omaha ma'ane'i. Ma ke alanui, pono e ho'omaopopo'ia he kahakai ka'āina Tuscan i nā moana'elua - Ligurian a me Tyrrhenia. 'O ka mua he'oi aku ma'ema'e, akā he'ele'ele ka wai o loko. Aia ke kai'o Tyrrhenia i ka hema, no laila pinepine i nā kauhale ma kona kahakai, nā'ohana me nā keiki e ho'omaha. Pono e'ike'ia he nui nā'āpana kahakai o Tuscan Coast i ho'olako'ia i nā papa kālepa. Ma kēia māhele,'o kēia pā'ani ka mea'oi loa.

Ke hele nei mākou i ka hema o ka peninsula Apennine a ha'alele i Roma. Mai kēia kūlanakauhale mai ka ho'omaka'ana o ke kaulana'o Odyssey coast, a hiki i Naples. Eia nō ka sunniest hokele ma Italy a hiki i ke kai, me nā kūlanahale o ka hapanui uuku me ka waiwai i hala. Ma ko lākou'āina, ua mālama'ia nā ho'omana'o he nui o ka hale hana kahiko. Ke nānā nei'o ia i kēia nani a pau,'a'ole e hiki i kekahi ke kōkua i ka ho'oili'ana i kekahi o nā mo'olelo o Ancient Greece. 'O kekahi o kēia mau kikowaena ke kūlanakauhale'o Terracina, kahi i ho'onohonoho'ia ai nā papa ki'i papahana ma nā ha'awina a pau. Eia nō ho'i ka mea kaulana loa i waena o nā po'e māka'ika'i ke kauhale o Sperlonga.

Me ka loa'a'ole o kahi kūlanakauhale e like me Naples, hiki'ole ke ho'omaopopo'ia'o Italia. Hiki i ka moana (ke kū'ai'ia kēia kāleka i nā kioshi a pau o ka'āina) ma kēia wahi kekahi o ka momona a me ka exotic. Ke kulanakauhale ia a me nā mea a pau i nā kūlanakauhale i puni ia, ua hoopuniia e tangerine laau, uliuli ka nalu a me rosaries, a me nā one kahakai holoi ma ka awawa o Napela. Aia ma nā'āina o ka'āina he mau wela wela, kahi e ho'opiha ai i ka ea me ka iodine. Ho'okau pinepine'ia lākou e nā po'e i kū'ole i ko lākou ma'i.

A,'o ke'ano,'o ka mea'oi loa a kaulana a'o ka'āpana Adriatic. Aia kahi'oihana kūka'ika'i nui, kokoke i nā kūlanakauhale a pau i ke ao a me ka pō, a hiki ke loa'a nā le'ale'a ma'ane'i no kēlā me kēia mea'ai.

Eia nā'ano like a me ke'ano kūikawā i hana'ia i nā makahiki he nui i nā hōkele o'Italia ma ke kai. He ki'i o kekahi o lākou i loko o ka'atikala, a iā'oe e nānā koke aku iā ia, e ho'omaopopo'ia ana aia ka lani ma ka honua.
