Starfarers, 30.
A subtropical island with surf, forest and mountains like Hawaii;
visitors restricted to protect the environment;
vine-covered accommodations scattered among trees and shrubs by the sea;
self-catering;
no shops, restaurants or entertainment;
a ramada for optional gatherings;
rent-free boathouse, jetty, watercraft and diving gear;
other holiday-makers disturbed by the presence of a single human being;
Ruszek wants to describe Tahir as a "planetary paradise" but can find a symbol only for "preserve." (p. 283)

Kaor, Paul!
I've been to Hawaii and I have noticed the mountains there. What struck me was that they looked as tho they should have been taller than they are. Well, Maui does have a giant mountain. Which satisfied me!
Ad astra! Sean
