Hawaii anyone? - Page 8

Did I mention that I have a geographic voodoo doll and that I've been poking Hawaii?

You're pre-disastered - what's the chance of any of this happening again once you get there?

At the Hilton Hawaiian the protesters would be about 5 miles away to be on public property (obvious exageration, but I doubt the protests were noticed by guests much).

Are you here, Moonliner? Email me and we'll meet up.

Anyone have any suggestions for places to look for cheaper airfares from the East Coast to Honolulu (HNL)?

I am thinking I'm going to have to get creative to score a deal. Some genius scheduler decided to put the concert on the same weekend as the marathon.

Also, any suggestions for inexpensive places to stay are appreciated. I will (hopefully) be going to the show at Aloha Stadium. No other plans as of yet.

I'm back.

Hawaii was way cool. I made it to the Big Island and O'ahu.

I visited the Wailana Coffee House, Matsumoto's: Shave ice, and Turtle bay but missed out on malasadas and manapua

I hit the black sand beach (Punalu'u) where the Honu were sunning themselves, saw lava at Volcano park, hiked up diamonhead, and drove to the top to Mauna Kea, snorkeled at Hanauma Bay Park, visited Pearl Harbor and the ohh so icky Waikiki beach. Pictures and a more detailed report to follow... Thanks again for all the pre-trip advice.

Glad you had fun. I assume you mean honu (turtles) were sunning themselves? Unless I'm misremembering (certainly possible) hona is a kind of tree.

Honu would be correct.

Glad you had a good time. And, yes, Waikiki Beach is icky.

True, but some of the funnest little waves you will find. Warm water, great scenery...
