The Legend of Maui |
Legend
tell us that the demigod Maui loved to fish. One sunny day his fishing
line caught, and when he pulled, each of the Hawaiian Islands broke the
surface of the sea! Now that's fishing. As if this wasn't enough, he then
stood on the edge of Haleakala's expansive crater and snared the sun. With
this feat came the promise that these islands would receive more daylight
hours so the native people's would have more time to fish! |
