Yes. I drove up to the lookout point... in a crappy kia rental car. I was wishing for my Subaru at that point cause its got some great twisty bits. The view from the top is really nice.
Awesome. We finally booked everything last weekend, flights, car, etc. Flights ended up being cheaper to fly mid week instead of on a weekend so we are staying for a couple extra days (cost about the same as flying on the weekend by the time you factor in a couple extra nights at a hotel). I booked a convertible, which probably means we'll have a castrated Mustang or something similar, but it should still be a fun experience cruising the island top down.
Pretty excited about going out there, it' still so far away though!
Are there any other cool places to go? Shopping, art galleries, markets, etc.?
We'll be in Princeville for a week and then in Kapaa for a few days at the end of the trip.
