I love to use Google Maps to share things I love with other people. It is through this type of story telling that people are able to connect and share experiences despite our differences and unique identities. As I share my stories, I hope to open the gateway for others to make memories and learn more about themselves and our world. In this post, I showcase one of the most powerful waves from Waimea Bay on the North Shore of Oahu. The energy of the ocean brings spectators from all over the world. It is one in a life time experience to witness fifty feet of waves crashing down onto the shore and I can attest that there is no other feeling like it. It warms my heart to see people from all cultures and distances come together to witness nature’s powerful gift.
