The quiet little town of Keanae, is on the way to Hana. This lava peninsula was turned
into a rich farming area where taro has been grown for generations. Only a few people
live there now. There is a stone church there, built in 1856, that survived a killer tsunami
in 1946. It wiped out the rest of the village and killed at least 24 people. The development
