ʻO Key Biscayne, ka mokupuni paradaiso ʻo Miami

I mua o ke awa o Miami, 3 km ka mamao, kahi wahi paradaiso ʻaʻohe mea e lili i ka Caribbean. ʻO ia ka mokupuni ʻo Biscayne Key o ʻO Biscayne Key, Aia ma waena o ke kai kūʻono ʻo Biscayne a me ka Moana ʻAkelanika, ma ka hema o ke kahakai ʻo Miami.

Pīhoihoi ka poʻe kipa i ka ʻike aku ua pili ka mokupuni i ka ʻāina nui e ka Rickenbacker Causeway i kūkulu ʻia ma 1947 o 1 km ka lōʻihi.

Pono e hoʻomaopopo ʻia ʻo ka ʻaoʻao ʻākau o ka mokupuni e noho ʻia e Crandon Park, ʻo ia ka »komo» i ka mokupuni a laila hiki i ka ʻāpana waena ke kaona ʻo Key Biscayne a hōʻea loa i Cape Florida State Park, kahi ʻāpana mai ʻO Biscayne National Park, kekahi o nā paka ʻāina ʻelua ʻo Miami-Dade County.

Pili nā moʻolelo moʻolelo i noho ʻia ka mokupuni e nā Tequesta Indians. ʻOiai ʻo Juan Ponce de León i loaʻa iā ia ma 1513 e koi ana no ka lei aliʻi Sepania.

Ma kahi o 365 mau lā i ka makahiki, ʻo ka mokupuni ka huakaʻi no nā mea hoʻomaha a me nā mākaʻikaʻi kūloko. I kēia ʻano, hāʻawi ʻo Crandon Park i kahi ākea me nā wahi leʻaleʻa he nui. Aia i loko o ka pāka kahi kahakai mālama ola, kahua kinipōpō hīnaʻi, nā pā volleyball one, nā wahi pikiniki, ke ala holoholo, ka papa skating o waho, a me ke kahua pāʻani me kahi punawai wai no nā keiki.

ʻO kekahi wahi nani ka Pāka Moku ʻo Cape Florida home i ka Hale Hōʻikeʻike ʻo Cape Florida i hoʻōla hou ʻia, kahi o nā mākaʻikaʻi mōʻaukala o Key Biscayne. Aia i loko o ka pāka kahi kahakai mālama ola, nā ala hele kūlohelohe, nā wahi pikiniki, nā wahi ʻai, a me ka Lighthouse ʻo Cape Florida. ʻO ka Cafe de Faro kahi wahi kūpono e ʻai ai ka ʻai - hāmama lākou no ka ʻāina kakahiaka nō hoʻi.

ʻOiai ma ka puʻuwai o ke kaiāulu Key Biscayne ka ʻO Green Kaona, kahi pāka lehulehu me kahi ʻano hoʻomaha e kūpono no ka holo, kaʻa paikikala, kaʻa kaʻa kaʻa, a i ʻole ka holoholo maʻamau. Aia kekahi wahi pāʻani me nā ʻūlili a me nā kiʻi he wahi maikaʻi loa ia no nā keiki a me nā mākua pū kekahi.

No ka poʻe ʻike i kēia wahi a me ka poʻe i laki e noho ma ka mokupuni, ʻo Key Biscayne kahi kūpono loa e kipa aku ai. He kaiāulu ia e loaʻa ana nā hale ʻaina, nā kī, nā hale nani, Keʻena Kinai Ahi, nā mākaʻi kūloko, nā ʻoihana huakaʻi, nā keʻena waiwai, a me nā lawelawe ʻē aʻe me he mea lā he kūlanakauhale ma ke kūlanakauhale o ka Lā ... me ka ʻokoʻa o kēia he mokupuni!
