ʻO Geneva… kahi huakaʻi e hoʻohui i ka lewa o ke kūlanakauhale ola a me nā mauna i uhi ʻia i ka hau

- He liʻiliʻi nā kūlanakauhale i loaʻa nā mea hana o Geneva! Inā ʻoe e lawe i ka waʻa ma waho o ka loko, e hoʻolele i nā mauna i uhi ʻia i ka hau, e hele ma nā ala nani o ka mōʻaukala a i ʻole e hoʻomaha i ka spa ma hope o kahi lā luhi o ke kūʻai ʻana, loaʻa kahi ʻike kūʻokoʻa ke kipa aku ʻoe i kēia kūlanakauhale nani. Inā makemake ʻoe i kahi hoʻomaha piha i nā hana, a i ʻole kahi leʻaleʻa aloha e hoʻolimalima me kāu hoa, a inā makemake ʻoe e haʻalele i ka hustle a me ka haʻalulu o ke ola a hauʻoli i ka maluhia, ua loaʻa iā ʻoe ka mea āu e ʻimi nei ma Geneva!

Aia ma ka ʻaoʻao o nā kuahiwi, ua kūpono kēia kūlanakauhale nani i kona inoa… "He Alpine Sanctuary". Inā makemake ʻoe i kahi ʻike ola ma ke kūlanakauhale, makemake ʻoe i ka ski ski downhill, a makemake paha e hoʻohana i nā hana āpau a kēia kūlanakauhale nani e hāʻawi ai, ʻo Geneva ka wahi kūpono no kahi huakaʻi piha. E ʻono ʻo Gourmets i nā mea ʻono o kā lākou punahele o ke kūlanakauhale, a laila e hele i nā pali e ski ma mua o ka hoʻi ʻana i ke kūlanakauhale no kahi pō i waho o ka pō.

ʻAʻole paʻakikī iā ʻoe ke kiʻi mai Geneva i nā hōkele ski kaulana e like me Courchevel, Megève, Zermatt, Chamonix a me Gstaad, kahi mamao loa mai ke kūlanakauhale. E ʻoluʻolu e ʻike ʻoe i nā ʻano pali āpau e kūpono i nā pae āpau o ka ʻike. E piʻi ma ke kaʻaahi mai Geneva, e hopu i ke kaʻa a i ʻole e hoʻohana i ka lawelawe kaʻa kaʻa i kāu huakaʻi ski punahele. No kahi ʻike kūʻokoʻa ʻē aʻe, e hauʻoli i nā hiʻohiʻona nani o ke kūlanakauhale ʻoiai e hoʻokele ana i kāu kaʻa hoʻolimalima ponoʻī.

Hāʻawi ka hoʻoilo i kahi paʻi like ʻole i Geneva, kahi e hiki ai iā ʻoe ke hana i nā hana nui ma nā wahi malu i ka wā hoʻoilo. Hiki iā ʻoe ke komo i kahi mākaʻikaʻi kūikawā e aʻo e pili ana i ka mōʻaukala 500 makahiki o ka ʻāina o ka hana wati nani. A no ka leʻaleʻa hou aʻe, hiki iā ʻoe ke aʻo e hōʻiliʻili i kāu wati Swiss a mālama pū me ʻoe i mea hoʻomanaʻo. Loaʻa i ka poʻe aloha kokoleka kekahi mahele ke kipa lākou i kahi hale hana kokoleka a ʻike i nā mea huna o ka hana ʻana i ke kokoleka kaulana Swiss. Hiki iā lākou ke lawe i kahi papa e aʻo ai i ka hana ʻana i ka fondue, a me ke aʻo ʻana e hoʻohui i nā mea ʻono a me nā memo i kūpono i kā lākou makemake.

ʻAʻole wale ia e hana i loko, akā e hāʻawi pū ke kūlanakauhale iā ʻoe i nā ʻike kupaianaha i waho i ka wā hau. ʻO ka Tobogganing kekahi mau koho i loaʻa ma Geneva, kahi e ʻike ai nā malihini i ko lākou keʻena kapu ma kahi wahi e like me ka ski resort a hauʻoli i nā pali me ka haʻalele ʻole i ke kikowaena o ke kūlanakauhale. Mai poina i ka manawa e kipa aku ai i ka Punawai Geneva, ʻo ia kekahi o nā ʻāina kaulana o ke kūlanakauhale, ʻoiai e kahe ana ka wai a hiki i 140 mika mai Lake Geneva. A laila e hele wāwae a hiki i ka uaki pua, nona ka lima lua 2.5 mika ka lōʻihi, a ʻo ka mea e hoʻokaʻawale ai ʻo ia nā pua a me nā kumu lāʻau e hoʻonani iā ​​​​ia, ʻoiai ʻoi aku ia ma mua o 6500 mau ʻano a hoʻololi e like me nā kau. I ka hoʻoilo, e hoʻonani ʻia ʻoe e ka nani o ka māla i uhi ʻia me ka hau keʻokeʻo.

ʻAʻole hiki iā ʻoe ke haʻalele iā Geneva me ka kūʻai ʻole ʻana i nā mea hoʻomanaʻo e hoʻāla ai i nā hoʻomanaʻo hauʻoli a hauʻoli āu i ʻike ai i kāu huakaʻi. No laila, he nui nā hale kūʻai i loaʻa i mua ou kahi e hiki ai iā ʻoe ke koho i nā souvenir e hoʻomanaʻo iā ʻoe i nā ʻike o kēia huakaʻi maikaʻi a hāʻawi paha iā lākou i makana i kou mau hoaaloha a me kou ʻohana. He nui nā koho kūʻai ʻana o kēia kūlanakauhale e hāʻawi i kāna poʻe malihini i ka mea e māʻona ai ko lākou ʻono. E poʻo i ka Rue du Rhône, kahi e ʻike ai ʻoe iā ʻoe iho i mua o ka nui o nā mea hoʻonaninani nani, e nānā i nā hale kūʻai a me nā mea nani kiʻekiʻe ke kūʻai aku ʻoe i nā alanui kūʻai nani a me nā alanui kūʻai nani o Paris a me Lākana. Inā makemake ʻoe e kūʻai i loko o nā hale kūʻai nani a kūʻokoʻa, e kipa aku i ke kūlanakauhale kahiko, e hāʻawi ana i nā hale kūʻai kūʻai kūʻai kūʻokoʻa a me nā mea nani, a me nā hale kūʻai no nā kiʻi, aia nā mea āpau ma waena o nā hale ʻaina nui a me nā wahi mōʻaukala kupaianaha.
