I would appreciate if you can give me some pointer. I am looking for a package on Expedia.com for air/hotel combo. Any suggestion? The expecting date is Aug. 25th to Aug. 31th. If any can give my suggestion on cheap airfare/hotel I would really appreciate it.

Thanks,

Mack

Are you going to The actual island of Hawaii? Most likely you are are going to the island of Oahu...... That is where Honolulu is.

Book em' Dano.

I spent 3 1/2 years there while I was in the military. Hotels back then (1990 to 1993) averaged around $85.00 a night. I always went to the same one by the airport.

Remember to take your speedos ...... and your wallet.

Expensive place! Even a gallon of milk is hella expensive. Nice place to visit, but I would not want to live there. Of course I did live there for 8 years. I was only 12 when I left though, so I really did not have any perception of what it took to live there.
Have fun. Be sure to visit HANAUMA bay. Awesome place to snorkel.

Home Sweet Home, for Me!

I haven't been there for 2 years now, but I'll be there for Christmas.

That's the same way I feel about LA! Damm, cost of living here is EXPENSIVE!

Just got back from a vacation there.

I spent a few days in Oahu (Honolulu) - I thought it sucked, a standard small city with many very rich people shopping. That's about it..

Then I spent about a week on Maui - Maui rocked. Spend as much time as you can on Hawaii (the big island as they call it there) or Maui.

The car scene is pretty big on Honolulu - I almost saw as much rice there as I do on a standard Friday night in Gwinnett, GA. Some dude went by me in a yellow ITR

It's funny that Hawaii is so damn small but people build fast cars. 0-the ocean might take you 20 seconds.

Hawaii has some of the most beautiful girls in the world, if you like Asian women. If I was going there I'd bring a huge box of condoms and my best shirt.

I have another tip!!!

Watch out for the old guy at the beach with the foot and half long *******!!! I swear this is for real.

This old guy used to walk along the strip by the beach in speedos and his nut suck was ungodly long. He must have had special speedos made with extra material in the sack region.

ugh!!! Steer clear for your own sake.

Yeah.. i've snorkeled there.... it was aiiiight. Did you driving snorkeling or diving anywhere else? B/c, pardon my friend but that place SUCKS! hehe. It was my first place to snorkel in Hawaii. After going to other places and scuba/snuba diving, I realized that that place just wasted one of my days. It was so overpopulated with people, the fish weren't colorfull, the water was cloudy form all of the people (sand), and because people were feeding the fish.. the fu@%ers were nipping people! hehe

Anyway... I am actually going to Maui this summer (so excited!!!), and if you go there I HIGHLY recommend you go to Ahihi Bay. It is a preserve, so there are lots of beautifull reef fish, and the reef is not damaged like in many other tourist spots. I have also heard good things about La Puruse Bay(spelling?), so I'll most likely check that out this time. Also.. if you go to Maui, I would have second thoughts about spending a day at Molokini Crater... it is a BIG tourist spot. The more popular DEFINITELY is not more better IMO. Ask the diving center at the hotel if they have one.

If you go to the Big Island, check out Kalicakua Bay - Cpt. Cook Monument (spelling) in Kona. That place was sweet. Just watch out the Orval the 20 year old HUGE moray eel that dwels there.. he scared this **** outa me.

Lots of other stuff to do.... surf/bodyboard/kayack/luaow(spelling)/site seeing..

Since I have been to all of the main islands (Maui, Big Island, and Oahu).. heres the way I look at it:

Oahu: best night life, more tourists, more croooowded, decent water (from where I have been)

Big Island: Most quiet. lots of greeeeeeeeeeeeenery. I mean, the Island was SOOOOOOOOO open, but I guess it was peacefull. We had to drive like an hour all the way to Kona to do some of the things we wanted. Dont forget to check out the active volcano (if it still is ) when you go. hehe

Maui: best water, awesome places to snorkel/snuba/scuba, beautifull, and my fav!

Hope you have a great time!

Kristen Muranaga is one of the new crop of Asian "import models", along with Natasha Yi, Rowena Galam, and Kaila Yu. Sung Hi Lee is actually the queen of Asian models but she doesn't do car shows. I read that Kristen Muranaga is Japanese, but she is more bodacious than your average JDM girl. Search for any of these chicks online and you'll like what you see.

Thank you guys! I think I am going to Oahu. The place is Waikiki Parkside Hotel. $500 for 5 nights, air/hotel. I think it is pretty decent considering I paid more when I took my last vacation, December of 98-long ago. Since it is a big car sence over there, there must be a lot of huchie. I am an amatuer photography, so my equipment is ready to snap up the most beautiful girls in the world. And of course, I will snap though car-model chick for you guys, too.

thanks again...

You won't be disappointed if you like Asian chicks!

Ross

yeah ZoomX is pretty nice. Try NatashaYi.com too she is smokin'.

Well it has been about 15 years since I was there. For a 12 year old it's an awesome place.

All the fellas are right! About the fact that each island is diferent in it's own way. It all depends on what your looking for and what you want out of your vacation. (Surfing, night life, peace and quite, etc....) That's so funny, I lived there all my life and I haven't gone to all of the other islands. Just Kauai "The Garden Island" with all the Mei'nehunei's stories that the island is know for. Can't wait to go back home! It been along time!

yoshi234

if j00 like golf and can pass for a local, j00 can play at some nice golf courses at the kama'aina rate

yoshi - who got to play at some sweet golf course on Maui as a kama'aina - lol

VTEC-LesS

The problem with Hawaii (at least Oahu) is that everyone drives super slow. I mean like 35mph everywhere, and MAYBE 50 on the freeway. In fact, there is a MINIMUM speed posted on the freeway of 45 in addition to the maximum speed. I guess people would be driving even slower if they had a choice. I drove around in a rented Mustang, and it was frustrating.

Other than that, Hawaii is a really nice place to visit.

nevergiveup

im going to hawaii from 8/3-8/15
about $1000 for hotel, food (3meals a day), hawaiian water park fee, luau dinner, transportation and native people taking us sight seeing with a about 100+ dollars to spend for gifts.

im going because there will be a international soccer tournament there and i am going to represent USA (even though i am a asian) born and raised in cali. lol

i went to hanauma bay about 5 years ago and it was not crouded at all
but i guess we were lucky

hope that we do well in the tournament
