Post by ArcsVibe »

Hello fellow Hawaii Vibers!Going to be in Hawaii ( sans my Vibe ) for a 10 day business trip on Sunday. I will have my afternoons and evenings free and wanted to know from the locals what are the places to see, restos to eat at stuff like that. Any and all help is appreciated!!

Are you going to different islands or just the main island? I'd say to go snorkeling at Captain Cooks cove...it's phenomenal.....

If you golf, go golfing...there's some phenomenal courses. Pearl Harbor's cool, not sure if it would affect you canadians like it did us.

As Hope said, definately make sure to go to one of the Luah's, some of the larger hotels have them that you can go to for like, $50 My suggestion would be the island of Kuwaii (spelling?) it's the wettest island, and is like a gigantic jungle garden.

lol! that would be tons of fun, but i don't think i would qualify... perhaps if it involved the marketing side of finances, but not the bean counting itself! my ex-other mother is the controller for the anchorage visitors convention bureau here and she always travels to places everywhere! so, if you go to some of your conventions and you meet the rep from anchorage... don't mention me! lol
