There is a film about the Japanese immigration in the XIX century in Hawaii. I saw it a few years ago and is very touching. I was searching now and found it, it is Picture Bride. And here is an article with photos about the work in the sugar cane plantation at that time.

However, I think that because everyone else can access it except Gerri, it must somehow be on her end. :( If she's putting www. in front it may be a problem. If she's wiping out half of a previous used URL and typing part of it on her own, it may be a problem. There could be many reasons.
