  • What to bring on a two-week vacation to Hawaii?

    Posted by admin on March 5th, 2010 and filed under vacation hawaii | 5 Comments »

    I’m going on a two-week vacation to Hawaii. What should I bring?
    What should I bring BESIDES the obvious?

    You can pretty much buy anything you forgot! They have TONS of stores, and its not THAT expensive.

    I just got back 2 days ago… I brought waterproof cameras, and lots of sun dresses with flip flops- all i wore!

    Even snorkel and fins are pretty cheap to rent, about $9, so you dont need those either…

    Edit- OH YEA almost forgot, water shoes! You can get the $6 cheap ones from Walmart :)

    what documents do you need to travel to Hawaii or Alaska?

    Posted by admin on March 5th, 2010 and filed under hawaii travel | 7 Comments »

    If your are from San Salvador, you are legally here but have no permentant residense statuas because of some imgration law. as long as you stay in the USA you are here legally, You have a valid driver linecse, have lived here for 8 yrs. can you travel to hawaii or alaska . If you can what documents do you need.

    From a 48-state US city to Alaska you need a "governement-issued photo ID" which for 90% of people is a valid US driver’s license. If you have a current driver’s license from any US state, that is all you need. (plus your ticket or confirmation code).

    Same for Hawaii.

    You will go through a metal detector (for guns and knives) and your hand carried bags will go through an X-ray machine (for weapons). You can’t bring liquids through security. You can’t bring fresh fruit from Hawaii to the Mainland.

    You only need a passport if you are leaving the USA or if you make a stop in Canada. You would only do that if your flight had a stop in Canada or if you drove up. But if your connection is in Chicago or Seattle or Portland or Minneapolis, you only need a driver’s license.

    Contrary to what another poster said, you DO need a passport if you take the State Ferry up from Bellingham. Not if you get off in Juneau or Ketchikan, but if you’re going to Anchorage. Because you’ll get off in Haines or Skagway and have 800 miles to drive, partly in Canada, to get to Anchorage.

    The airlines check your name against a "no fly" list. But that is for suspected terrorists. If your name isn’t something like "Mohammed Atta" or "Yusuf Islam", then you’re okay. They don’t have all 11 million illegal aliens nor all the people who have overstayed their visas on that list.

    Whats the best hotel in Hawaii?

    Posted by admin on March 5th, 2010 and filed under hotel hawaii | 10 Comments »

    My wife and I are taking a trip to Hawaii in February. Weve never been and want a very nice private hotel to stay at. Money is no option really. Any suggestions?

    Depends on the island.
    On Oahu, though lovely, the Hilton Hawaiian Village (someone else mentioned it) is extremely touristy and busy. It’s not at all private. If you want something truly private on Oahu you would most likely need to go to the North Shore. Turtle Bay, maybe? In Waikiki, I recommend the Royal Hawaiian. It’s absolutely beautiful and it’s on a great stretch of Waikiki Beach.
    Maui – Grand Wailea or Ritz Carlton Kapalua
    Kauai – Hyatt Regency
    Big Island – Four Seasons Hualalai, The Orchid at Mauna Lani, Mauna Lani Bay Hotel and Bungalows, or Kona Village Resort. KVR offers private hales (hah-lay, which means ‘house’), no TVs, total tranquility. It’s pricey but very exclusive and quite beautiful.

    Good tours of Hawaii?

    Posted by admin on March 5th, 2010 and filed under hawaii tours | 4 Comments »

    My famiy and I want to travel to Hawaii but we don’t know where to go, so we are hoping to have a tour guide service. Can anyone recommend good tour guide services or where I can find good tour services? We are leaving from LAX. Thank you

    Over the years I have had chance to go on a few of the Tours with several Different Tour Companies…"Roberts" is the only one worthwhile…so if I HAD to use a Tour Co. "Roberts" would be the only one.(I prefer to do as I please on the Islands without the time constraints of a Tour) but the Roberts Line is nice for what it is…They are always friendly…have fun en route to your destination…and the buses are very comfortable…here is a link…~~Aloha~~A Hui Ho

    Has the Pear Harbor Bombing In 1941 altered Tourism in Hawaii? if so How?

    Posted by admin on March 5th, 2010 and filed under hawaii tourism | 1 Comment »


    The bombing made the Hawaiian islands a war zone, and there was the fear that the Japanese might invade Hawaii. No tourism functioned until many islands had been taken from the Japanese in 1943 and 1944. By 1945 the islands were once more a site for tourism. Today the site of the sunken battleship the USS Arizona is a memorial to the soldiers and sailors that died on that day of December 7, 1941, in Pearl Harbor, and is one of the biggest memorials in any of the 50 states. Recently some 40 million dollars has been set aside for renovation and upgrading of the site.
