SIGNS OF HAWAIIAN LIFE IN THE UNIVERSE | Carlotta and Pepi Pesentheiner of Honolulu were window shopping in the quaint Austrian town of Fuerstenfeld in September when they spotted something quite unexpected; the Aloha Surf Shop. They stopped in to ask the shopkeeper whether he had ever surfed Hawaii's big waves. His answer: "No, but I made it as far as Portugal."
