Teniamos que conocer la famosisima playa Big beach. Podiamos darnos el tiempo y el clima no podia ser mejor. Cazamos el auto, agarramos la highway hasta el final y en treinta minutos terminamos en una zona bastante exclusiva de campos de golf con casas y construcciones exageradamente lujosas com…

The best time of my life, with the woman I absolute love!!

Beautiful islands with amazing beaches and volcanic mountains. Very scenic, a real paradise. Before going to Hawaii, my expectations were not very high. I thought it was going to be too touristy and crowded, but it wasn´t! (except for Honolulu and Waikiki, in Oahu). I really got amazed by the beauty of the islands. Next time, the Big Island!

We left Green Valley and drove to downtown Tucson to catch a van shuttle to Phoenix.  They allowed us to leave our car in their parking lot for free so made good sense as would have cost us around $90.00 to park at the airport and the shuttle just cost 80.00 round trip for both of us.  We…

Aloha Airlines used to fly from Honolulu, Hawaii to Rarotonga in the Cook Islands.  One day I learned that Aloha Airlines was going to discontinue the route.  I had several hundred thousand frequent flier miles on Aloha Airlines which I had been accumulating with the intention of using th…

There was always something new happening in Honolulu. Well, at least when I was there. Early one Tuesday morning when I woke up in my hotel room after yet another eventful Aloha time the night before, my travelbuddies Mar and Sylv gathered around the foot of my bed looking looking at me with a curi…

The simple things...

I drove from my home in Hawaii Kai to the garbage dump in Waimanalo.  Along the way, I took stopped to take some photos at the lookout before Hanauma Bay, the Lanai Lookout, the Blowhole Lookout and Makapuu Lookout.  I also took a few snaps while I was driving - not very safe when you're …

Maui is small, yet diverse. Here you'll find dry areas similar to the Southwest USA, but you'll also find jungles like the ones in Central America. Throw in some alpine forests, blowholes, a couple of volcanoes, and loads of world-class beaches, and you'll have barely scratched the surface of all the wonders Maui has to offer.

Not a bad flight into Hilo airport, via Honolulu. Seems like I can now easily deal with five hour flights not being able to sleep.Taxi driver from Hilo airport was interesting and offered me his services as a guide to the island, not that I took him up on the offer. As it was night time when I arri…

I got to San Fransisco Friday night, we had dinner and spent Saturday tooling around San Fran.  I got some great pics, when the clouds finally dissipated just enough for me to get a couple of decent Golden Gate pics I was very excited.....  Sunday we flew into Maui.  We couldn't chec…

The LomiLomi Experience

My wife and I took a weekend trip to Maui.  She had to work on Friday so she flew to Maui while I took the SuperFerry over to Maui.  I wasn't even sure if the SuperFerry was going to leave due to the bad weather on Oahu.   Thursday's SuperFerry run was canceled because the seas were …

I've been meaning to do this for a while now. Finally, I'm posting some random photos from my last 5 years of traveling. Just sharing the beauty of this world - enjoy! =) ***Still not finished uploading ALL the photos, so check back again later!***

Today I went over to Pearl Harbor to go check out the USS Arizona Memorial along with the USS Bowfin and the aviation museum unfortunately I got a late start but I was still able to see the USS Arizona Memorial.  I got off the bus and walked into park you have to go through a little sec…
