Molokai

Hawaiian island #5 for Ol' Marco.  A quick solo adventure over the 2017 holidays.  Not too many tourists rolling through Molokai - which is a good thing, old Hawaii.  You can see most of the island in about 36 hours.  My AirBnb came with a car - you don't see that very often.  Kalaupapa National Historical Park is a still-active leper colony operating on the north side of the island on a remote, stunning peninsula.  Tragic history, though believed to be necessary at the time, it's a reminder of the massive challenges with disease throughout the course of human history, with leprosy causing issues even in the US as late as the 1960s.

Always great to see Mike back in Oahu.  It has now become my home away from home.  Big thanks to Ula once again!
