go back to Hawaii

-swim with dolphins

-eat taro, tiny little bananas, and those spiny-looking fruits I saw when I felt too sick to try them

-drink pog

-sit on a beach and do absolutely nothing

-swim in the warm ocean

-see Hana

-see Honokahau Valley again

-drive to the shore in the wee hours of the morning, wade into the warm water, dry off, hang around on the sand, and watch the sun come up

-do something or other with the native population again…being a goofy haole I felt a little intimidated in general and taken aback by their humor at times, but boy do I miss the elders sometimes

well, seeing ‘Ulalena is a must. Other than that I’m just letting myself dream and brainstorm without any thought even to feasibility…

-go to Keola Beamer’s Hawaiian music camp

-spend a day at Ni’ihau

-snorkel at Lehua; see the “keyhole”

-if the restoration efforts at Lehua have come far enough along, bring a really good camera and document its re-greening

-see Kaohikaipu Island and Manana Island off O’ahu

-swim or take an outrigger canoe to a tiny, uninhabited island

-spend a night or two at the most ridiculously elaborate fantasy resort I can locate

-see for myself if Moloka’i is really as overrun with wild chickens as I’ve been told

-camp somewhere

-find somewhere good and natural to just walk and walk all day long

the sand between your toes..the chill of the water that blows in your hair..the heat against my skin, there’s no other place in the world i would rather be. i love it there. be open. be free. be whoever you want. simply, my eyes of heaven.

I went to Oahu, Maui and Big Island during May, 2007. Big Island is full of adventure and hardcore 4WD experiences, I totally loved it, and I am definitely in love the fact that the hawaiians even eat rice as breakfast, not to mention all the amazing exotic fruits, I love Hawaii. I think I might take a break from it, and explore other tropical places more before I return again.

I went back in 2005 and I fell in love with the place. I was so sad when I had to fly back home to Tennessee. My plan is to go back in July ‘08 with hopefully my future wife. The plan is to stay in Maui. I stayed in Oahu on Waikiki Beach last time (which was beautiful) however I heard Maui was even better. So thats where I want to go.

it’s happening, I can’t believe it…my target is Maui and Big Island, I just wished the rental car could be cheaper.

We went to Honolulu, Pearl Harbour, Hanauma Bay, Hickham Air force base and all around the island. It was fantastic. Holiday of a lifetime. We are going to go back.

I lived there for a year when my dad was in the military….....and I miss it like crazy. -=\

will try this again later
