Hawaii is famous for its beaches. Every year water sports, especially surfing and water skiing attract many tourists to the island. Hawaii has been a magical name to people who like to travel for many years. People on both sides of the Pacific Ocean in Japan and in America, dream of seeing these beautiful islands in the middle of the ocean. In the tropical lands, the sun drops like a ball of golden glow that light the sky in the quiet water. People often have a quiet, enjoyable time walking along the water. The scenery here is not very different from the exciting beauty that greeted the first tourists to these islands centuries ago. They came in canoes not much bigger than small boats.

I looked around and saw an old man with old clothes and dirty old shoes. His hair was unwashed. He was smiling at my Erik. "He might hurt my Erik," I thought. Everyone in the restaurant looked at us and the old man. Then we decided to leave. The old man sat between the door and us. As I walked closer to the man, I turned my back. Suddenly, Erik leaned over my arms, reaching with both arms in a baby's pick-me-up position . Before I could stop him, Erik had escaped from my arms to the man's.
