Hawaii with Grandma & the kids Flying Hawaiian Air General Advice about Going to Hawaii Hawaii Wedding/Honeymoon Specific Islands the Big Island Kauai Maui Oahu Trip to Hawaii with a 13 month old May 2004 Hi. My husband and I are planning a week long vacation in Hawaii. It does not matter which island (except Maui since we've been there before) to go, but we'd like to have a relaxing time. We have a very active 13 months old son. Any recommendation on baby friendly hotels or condos? We prefer to stay in a condo so that we can cook meals for our son.I already read the previous recommendations on the web. I'd love to have more updated opinions. THANKS! anon Recommended: the Big Island Mauna Lani Terrace condos Kauai Kiahuna Plantation resort Kauai Poipu Beach (2 reviews) Need a rental - any island OK April 2004 Help help help! Here's what I need to find: a 3 bedroom (no lofts or pull-out sofas; we NEED 3 bedrooms) condo or house on or near the water in Hawaii (any island). Must have good amenities and be well furnished, and allow small children. Pool a plus. I've looked at the archives, on the net, and thru all the Wizard Publications guidebooks (Maui Revealed, etc.), and most of the things I've found either don't have 3 bedrooms, don't allow children, or are in the ''not fancy, but clean and comfortable'' category. Does anyone know of a friend who has a nice place they rent out? I've done many a google search and my eyes are bleary!thanks!Ellen Recommended: Kauai, North Shore Maui, Kapalua Bay Toy Rentals for Hotel Room Use? March 2004 is anyone familiar with a company in kauai that rents children's toys while you visit the island? i'm not looking for water toys, but rather everyday toys to play with while staying in hotel rooms.pamela Try the Keiki Cottage in Kapaa. It's a consignment store and Holly rents things like pack n plays, so she might do toys too. Have a great trip!!Rachel How about www.babysaway.comRebecca Hawaii with Grandma & the kids April 2002 Any recommendations for good spots in Hawaii to take a senior citizen who's always wantedto see Hawaii, but isn't very active (can't do a lot of walking)? Accomodations can't berustic, but we're also not looking for ultra-luxury (finances are an issue).Some historical spots, some shopping would be good, but don't need a lot of either. Probablymost important is that it be a beautiful setting (since she's probably got some classic Hawaiianimage--crystal blue water, palm trees, sunsets, etc.--in her mind). Nice beaches are important,too, to keep the grandkids happy. Plan is to go around Thanksgiving. Thanks in advance for anyrecommendations.(Yes, I've looked at the Hawaii recommendations already, but nothing struck me as the perfectplace to meet these needs. Hoping my request will spark a response from folks in a similarposition, or who see their favorite Hawaiian spot as perfect for taking both a senior and kids...)Judy Recommendations received: Kawaii (two) Flying Hawaiian Air August 2002 I'm interested in hearing comments (good and bad) from peoplewho have flown Hawaiian Air from the Bay Area to Honolulu. I'veonly flown with them on short inter-island flights in Hawaii.Our family is planning a trip to Hawaii. The fact that they flyout of Oakland or Sacramento instead of SFO intrigues me (Ireally dislike SFO).Clarisse I haven't flown Hawaiian Air out of Oakland, but I have flownAloha Air from Oakland to Maui. Aloha Air also flies fromOakland to Honolulu. The attendants are pretty much the mostpleasant I have encountered on any airline. You can use UnitedMileage Plus miles to fly on Aloha Air (or earn United MileagePlus miles), as they are partners. This definitely beats makingthe trek to SFO and dealing with the craziness there!!Yearly traveler to Maui My husband and I had a bad experience traveling on Hawaiian Airabout 18 months ago. There were mechanical problems and thecompany seemed to be really unorganized in terms of getting allthe passengers on other flights and in terms of keepingpassengers posted as to the status of the mechanics working onthe plane. They also failed to announce that there were freevouchers available for food at the airport during the longwait. Once we made it on the flight, I found out from aseatmate that if you ASKED for vouchers they were given out andmy husband and I had just spent about $35 of our own money onmeals. It seemed rather unfair. We sat in the airport forabout 20 hours. It was horrible and I don't think we would flythem again.The one thing they did handle well was that they gave everyonefree round trip tickets (on Hawaiian Air) to fly to Hawaii againin the next 12 months.Good luck.Julie We flew Hawaiian from SFO - HNL several times and will not usethem in the future. We had one flight where all the attendentswere fighting with each other. On another flight, where weused our free mileage, they totally messed up our reservation.On the other hand, we most recently used Aloha from OAK - HNLand we were very pleased with the customer service andprofessionalism. I think they do fly a smaller plane than otherairlines, and my partner felt quite cramped. Nonetheless,we plan to use Aloha again.Regards, Michele General Advice about Going to Hawaii From: Karen Have a great time. We went to Kauai when our daughter was 2 and Maui whenshe was 4ish. One thing I discovered both times (for different reasons) isthat our family does better when the place we sleep is delightful enough tospend a good portion of the day in. We really needed a place that wasexotic, Hawaii, versitile enough to be satisfying without driving. Whenour daughter was 2, if we spent a moderate time driving to the beautifulbeach or hike (and home again), there was lots of fussing, sleeping in thecar and then not at naps or nights. When our daughter was 4ish, she lovedbeing in charge of her environment - playing games in the cabin, drawing inthe cabin, exploring outside the cabin etc. Our ideas of driving to thebeach or the state park were met with much protest! (I was very surprised!)Luckily, we ended up in a couple of places that satisfied her age-relatedneeds and our needs to feel like we really were away from home. On Kauaiiwe stayed at Glo Manor on the north coast. We found them on the internet.We also rented a cabin at Waimea Canyon State Park. I was less contenthere because the ocean was not walkable. But the hiking is great. It isthat tropical forest surrounding. On Maui, in Hana, we rented a cabin atthe Waianapanapa State Park. Cabin are very sparsely equipped. Cabins 1-7have nice views. Our best choice for the 4 year old was the 1st floorcondo a Maalea Bay in Maui. We had a relatively calm beach, great views,lots of grandparent aged people that would chat with my daughter, somefamilies with kids. I can get phone #'s for you if you have troublefinding them. The next place we want to try is camping on Lanai. I haven'tinvestigated it much. It could be hard if there were no other kids there From: laura beth I know there are some places you can camp, but in general, camping isprohibited (and it is strictly enforced) on the beaches. So, I have noinfo really except that I know people who went over thinking, "weel, I canjust camp and I won;t get a ticket" and this is not the fact of the matter.They do ticket and will arrest. Good luck! From: Deborah Just got back from a week on Oahu with kids age 4 and 8. It was great. Westayed at a B&B in a small beach town called Waimanalo, about a half hourfrom Honolulu. I would recommend the place we stayed, called "Nalo Winds"www.nalowinds.com.For $550 for 7 nights we had the "mermaid suite," a good-sized bedroom witha queen bed, a teeny bathroom (shower only--no tub), and a large lanai(screened porch) with a double futon, table and 4 chairs, and kitchenettewith small fridge, 2 burner hotplate, microwave, toaster oven, coffeemaker. The kitchen was stocked with coffee, tea, milk, juice, fruit,yogurt, cereal, muffins. One of the things I liked most is that the lanaiopens onto a private garden with a small lawn and hammock. The rental alsoincludes the use of a wide selection of snorkelling equipment (some kidsize), adult bikes, coolers, a gas grill, washer/dryer, kiddie pool. Itsort of felt like borrowing someone's slightly funky, but comfortable beachhouse (oh, it's half a block from the beach). There's no tv/vcr, which wedidn't miss, and sound carries perfectly from the bedroom to the lanai, soit's hard for someone to take a nap in one room while others are playing inthe other room. I wouldn't think Hawaii would be a great place to camp for a week, butmaybe for part of the time. It can get really hot and also rainy. You wouldneed to get ice daily to keep food cold. Be sure to find someplace withshowers for all the sand and saltwater (some beaches have showers...) Hawaii Wedding/Honeymoon Claudia My sister is getting married in May and is planning a honeymoon in Hawaii, 5 days in Maui and 5 in Kauai. Since they're travelling on a shoestring budget, my husband and I would like to give them a gift certificate for some activity to do there -- like a snorkeling/sailing package or biking down the volcano in Maui. Does anyone have any good suggestions for activities on either island that are fun, adventurous and memorable and cost under $200? They're both active, outdoorsy types who would be willing to try pretty much anything. We also thought of treating them to dinner at a romantic restaurant so if anyone has a recommendation for a nice place for honeymooners, I'd appreciate it. Thanks for your help. Linda A great romantic restaurant on Kauai with amazing food is The Beach House near Poipu. It has a wonderful view (go near sunset), and the food is wonderful (but not cheap). It is a sister restaurant to A Pacific Cafe on the east side of the island, which has great food too but no view. We really enjoyed the boat/snorkeling tours we took. We did one on Kauai around the Na Pali coast (only accessible by boat or foot). On Maui, we did a snorkeling tour to Molikini, a tiny island crater. There were boats packed in the little crater, but despite the crowds the snorkeling was great (tons of fish). We booked these trips through our hotels, and I don't remember the costs. From: Christina My husband and I honeymooned on Kauai and our favorite beach on the island wasPolihale State Beach. It's the most south-westerly beach on the island that'saccessible by car, and a great place to watch the sun set. It's a long stretch of beach, and at one end the Na Pali coastline begins with it's dramatic lushgreen steep cliffs. Also there aren't many people there, since it is a bit ofa drive (5 minutes off the highway on a dirt road). Would be most convenient if you are staying in Poipu or west of Poipu. Congratulations!

In the days following the attacks we saw immediate and selfless volunteering, generous monetary gifts, blood donations, and an outpouring of support and patriotism across America. Sustaining that spirit of volunteerism and unity is crucial to defending the freedoms America holds dear. Americans are working together to strengthen their communities. President George W. Bush is working to support community-based efforts through the newly-proposed Citizen Corps. This broad network of volunteer efforts will harness the power of the American people by relying on their individual skills and interests to prepare local communities to effectively prevent and respond to the threats of terrorism, crime, or any kind of disaster. http://www.citizencorps.gov/ ©2005 Hawaii State Civil Defense revize login

Hawaiians used the word

Introduction to Kilauea Volcano, Hawai`i Eruption Update Eruption Summary Hazards History Panorama Images Kilauea -- Perhaps the World's Most Active Volcano View north-northeast across Kilauea's summit caldera and Halema`uma`u crater (left of center) Kilauea is the youngest and southeastern most volcano on the Big Island of Hawai`i. Topographically Kilauea appears as only a bulge on the southeastern flank of Mauna Loa, and so for many years Kilauea was thought to be a mere satellite of its giant neighbor, not a separate volcano. However, research over the past few decades shows clearly that Kilauea has its own magma-plumbing system, extending to the surface from more than 60 km deep in the earth. In fact, the summit of Kilauea lies on a curving line of volcanoes that includes Mauna Kea and Kohala and excludes Mauna Loa. In other words, Kilauea is to Mauna Kea as Lo`ihi is to Mauna Loa. Hawaiians used the word Kilauea only for the summit caldera, but earth scientists and, over time, popular usage have extended the name to include the entire volcano. 11 October 2002 The eruption of Kilauea Volcano that began in 1983 continues at the cinder-and-spatter cone of Pu`u `O`o (high point on skyline). Lava erupting from the cone flows through a tube system down Pulama pali about 11 km to the sea (lower left). Map of Kilauea, including location of Pu`u `O`o Sketch showing magma reservoir & active lava-tube system Kilauea is the home of Pele, the Hawaiian volcano goddess. Hawaiian chants and oral traditions tell in veiled form of many eruptions fomented by an angry Pele before the first European, the missionary Rev. William Ellis, saw the summit in 1823. The caldera was the site of nearly continuous activity during the 19th century and the early part of this century. Since 1952 there have been 34 eruptions, and since January 1983 eruptive activity has been continuous along the east rift zone. All told, Kilauea ranks among the world's most active volcanoes and may even top the list. | Eruption Update | Eruption Summary | Hazards | History | Kilauea Facts Map of the Island of Hawai`i Location 19.425 N 155.292 W Elev. Above Sea Level 1,277 m 4,190 ft Area 1,430 km 2 552 mi 2 (13.7% of Hawai`i) Volume 25,000-35,000 km 3 6,000-8,500 mi 3 Hawaiian Meaning The Hawaiian name "Kilauea" means "spewing" or "much spreading," apparently in reference to the lava flows that it erupts. Most Recent Eruption Continuous since January 3, 1983 Number of Historical Eruptions 61, not counting the continuous lava-lake activity in Halema`uma`u crater Summit Caldera The caldera itself has no Hawaiian name other than Kilauea but houses the famous crater, Halema`uma`u; "hale" is a house, "ma`uma`u" a type of fern. Kamapua`a, a jilted suitor of Pele, is said to have built a house of ferns over Halema`uma`u to keep Pele from escaping her home and causing eruptions. The ploy failed.
