Hanapepe, Hawaii
Hanapepe (literally, "crushed bay" in Hawaiian due to landslides in the area) is a census-designated place (CDP) in Kauai County, Hawaii, United States. The population was 2,153 at the 2000 census.
==History==
Hanapepe was one of the locations visited by the United States Exploring Expedition under Charles Wilkes; the expedition arrived in Hawaii in late September, 1840, and spent some time in the islands. It is one of the few towns on the island that was not created by the sugar plantations. In the 1920s, a deadly labor battle, later dubbed the Hanapepe Massacre, occurred in Hanapepe.
On August 27, 1980, Douglas Kenney, a co-writer of National Lampoon's Animal House, fell thirty feet to his death from the Hanapepe Lookout.
Hanapepe is the headquarters location for the ice cream company Lappert's Hawaii, as well as home to the western-most bookstore in the United States, Talk Story Bookstore.〔Kauai (Lonely Planet Regional Guide), by Luci Yamamoto & Amanda C. Gregg, October 1, 2009, ISBN 978-1-74104-136-1〕 It was the inspiration for the hometown of the main characters in the Disney animated film ''Lilo & Stitch''.〔Gary A. Warner, ("Lilo and Stitch are alive and well in Hanapepe, Hawaii" ), ''San Diego Union-Tribune'', April 26, 2009.〕
