HAWAII
PARADISE ISLANDS
OF THE PACIFIC
Many readers ask me from
time to time, . is there any one
place you've been that you would
like to visit again? That's not an
easy question to answer, First of
all there are very few places I've
visited that I wouldn't go back to
again, for I've thoroughly en-
joyed the many places I've had
the privilege of visiting. Second
of all, though, is that I try to visit
new destinations on each trip, as
life is short and there are many,
many interesting and exciting
countries which I hope yet to see.
However, if there was one
place I want to revisit sometime,
that place would have to be the
Paradise Hawaiian Islands in the
Pacific. For those of you who
have been there you'll know what
I'm talking about, for those who
have not been there, let me as-
sure you that Hawaii is every-
thing you've ever imagined it to ,
be and more.
From the moment you step off
your- jet aircraft at Honolulu
International Airport and the
warm, friendly Id greeting on
your arrival, you quickly notice
the warm, hospitable nature of
your hosts, their beautiful smile
and above all their sincere, genu-
ine interest in making sure you
have a pleasant and enjoyable
vacation.
Hawaii is a year-round vaca-
tion destination. In the summer
the average daytime tempera-
ture is around 85 degrees and
during the winter months around.
80 degrees. We visited Hawaii in
January which proved to be a
great time of. year, and for most
Canadians you'll be glad to hear
there's Very low humidity and no
pesky mosquitos to bother you.
As soon as you enter the Termi-
nal Building at the ultra-modern
Honolulu Airport one of the many
beautiful Hawaiian Wahines
(which is Hawaiian for "girls")
comes to you, places a flower lei
around your neck, and gives the
men a kiss. What a welcome!
What a welcome!
The Island of'Qahu
Oahu is known as the gathering
place. From downtown Honolulu,
bustling commercial capital of
the Pacific, to the tranquillity of
Makaha Valley... from the miles
124 suIga0,ane And pineapple fields
to the beaches and glittering
nightlife of Waikiki. , . Oahu is
where Hawaii's action is happen-
ing.
There are a variety,of activities
one can do while on Oahu, When-
ever I travel, I make it a point as
soon as possible to join a tour of
the area I'm visiting in order to
familiarize and orientate myself
with the surroundings, I have
found this to be very helpful as it
gives you an idea where you're
at, what's going on and where. So
one of the many things we did
was to first take an all-day tour
around the Island of Oahu. This
was very enjoyable and worth-
while as we travelled through
some of the most scenic areas
you'll ever encounter. We stop-
ped at a Pineapple Station and
sampled some of the delicious
and fresh Hawaiian pineapple.
We watched sugar cane in har-
vest, and stopped periodically
here and there to take in the
beautiful scenery.
terest we visited while on Oahu
were Paradise Park, Situated in
Manoa Valley, the Park is an ex-
tensive tropical exhibit set
amidst varied gardens, mountain
streams and waterfalls. Over 1,-
000 tropical birds inhabit the
Park, which features a pageant
of trained birds, one of the
world's largest free-flight aviar-
ies and trails through forest and
tropical jungle growth. We also
visited the Polynesian Cultural
Centre at Laie. Located on the
north shore of Oahu, the Centre is
operated by the Mormon Church
and is made up of six native vil-
lages representative of those in
Fiji, Tonga, the Maori of New
Zealand, Tahiti, Samoa and
Hawaii. These villages are in-
habited by native people from
these islands. During the after-
noon you tour through each of the
villages and in the evening you
will see a superb performance in
the amphitheatre with sound and
light effects. The Cultural Centre
is a must during your stay on
Oahu,
Sea Life Park is another at-
traction you should visit, Situated
on the site of an ancient fishing
village across from Makapuu
Point and Lighthouse, it is one of
the finest displays of sea life in
America, including a spiral-de-
signed reef, a 300,000 gallon coral
reef lagoon, porpoise theatre and
whaler's cove. Another must is
the Pearl Harbour Cruise which
leaves twice daily from the Hono-
lulu harbour. You cruise down the
coastline of Honolulu into Pearl
Harbour, view the USS UTAH
where she rests in memory of her
crew still aboard, continue
around Ford Island to world
famous "Battleship Row", past
the Arizona and the Memorial
erected in her honour. The most
familiar landmark on Oahu of
course, is the world-renowned
Diamond Head which bounds
Waikiki Beach on the south. An
extinct volcano, it is said to have
once been the home of Pele, the
Fire Goddess.
Shopping of course is an exer-
cise of self restraint in Hawaii.
There's the International Market
Place which is located in the
heart of Waikiki. Here you will
find a wonderful world of shop-
ping, browsing, eating and re-
laxation. You can spend a for-
tune. . . or not spend a dime. .
and have a fabulous time in the
most fantastic market place in
the Pacific. Then there's the
largest shopping center in the
world, the ultra-modern Ala
Moana Shopping Center. You can
spend an entire day at this center
and never enter the same store
twice. It's just a shopper's para-
dise. Travelling does strange
things to people. When at home
there's nothing I despise more
than shopping. . • I think most ,
men are like this. However, when
on a trip and my wife suggests we
go shopping, I don't mind, and to
be quite honest with you, I rather
enjoy it.
I have been writing about the
Island of Oahu, but there's more,
much more to the Hawaiian Is-
lands than just Oahu. There's
Kauai, the garden isle. This is the
oldest (and, many claim, love-
liest) island in the Hawaiian
chain. It's lush, green- and tropi-
cal, the. Polynesian Paradise of
song and legend. With its quiet
rivers, splendid beaches and
South Seas langour, Kauai has
been the favoured location for
films like "South Pacific" in
which the island starred as the
mythical "Bali Hai".
Maui, the Valley Isle, acquired
its nickname from the great
sweep of rolling valley that links
the two Volcanoes which formed
the island. Mile after mile of
white sansl, }peaches parallel
scenic dil4ei fiaat mountain ens-
cades and pools. Lahaina is
bright town whose rowdy whaling
past is recalled in shops and cele-
brations which co-exist peace-
fully with the arts and crafts of
tomorrow. It is linked by the
quaint, narrow-gauge Lahaina,
Kaanapali and Pacific Railroad
with the beautiful new resort
area of Kaanapali,
Hawaii, the Orchid Isle. The
Big Island lives up to its name in
every sense. It's large in both size
and variety. Here are smoldering
volcanoes, wild orchids, black
sand beaches, Kona coffee
