That's was pretty fun, you need to get up pretty early like 2am. You meet up at this place to ride a shuttle that has a bunch of mountain bikes. Drive up the the volcano which takes a while. It's well worth, trust me! After the sunrise you come down on bikes all downhill and can stop for breakfast in the middle of the bike ride. Here is a better trip report:<br /><br /> <a href="http://www.travelpod.com/travel-blog-entries/wanderlust720/1/1249342061/tpod.html" target="_blank">web page</a> <br /> </font> </td></tr> <tr bgcolor="#dedfdf"> <td valign="top" width="18%"> <font size="2" face="Verdana, Arial"> <b>turbo50</b> <br /><small>Member # 6700</small> </font></td> <td width="82%"> <font size="1" face="Verdana, Arial"> <img src="https://californiafords.com/ubb/posticon.gif" border="0" alt=" - " /> posted <script language="JavaScript1.3" type="text/javascript"> document.writeln(timestamp(new Date(2010,4,16,19,26,0), dfrm, tfrm, 0, 0, 0, 0)); </script><hr /> </font> <font size="2" face="Verdana, Arial"> senor frogs was popping its right my the waikiki hilton.<br /><br />Also check out hanama (sp?) bay.<br /><br />I rented a mustang convertible and drove around the entire island. It was awesome!<br /><br />If you do that stop at Giovannis shrimp truck. You cant miss it. It is in North shore area and marked on the Enterprise rental car map as a landmark. It is a beat up ass taco truck but man they make the best shrimp there and I have been around the world trying shrimp when I was in the air force so take it for what its worth!<br /><br />Also watch that nasty ass hawaii sun. Man I tan great and never burn but that fuckin hawaii sun got me good!<br /><br />Oh and last thing...go on a booze cruise, even if you dont drink. It is a katamaran that leaves the shore before sunset and its like 20 bux, all you can drink.

Also kapalua bay in maui is absolutely gorgeous - a must see, its north of kanapali. lahaina is a chill spot for some drinks and seafood. lastly molokini is fun, but make sure to take a bigger boat as the waves on a small boat there can make you seriously seasick. the turtles there are cool! have fun. <br /> </font> </td></tr> <tr bgcolor="#dedfdf"> <td valign="top" width="18%"> <font size="2" face="Verdana, Arial"> <b>Chavez66</b> <br /><small>Member # 9812</small> </font></td> <td width="82%"> <font size="1" face="Verdana, Arial"> <img src="https://californiafords.com/ubb/posticon.gif" border="0" alt=" - " /> posted <script language="JavaScript1.3" type="text/javascript"> document.writeln(timestamp(new Date(2010,4,17,13,43,0), dfrm, tfrm, 0, 0, 0, 0)); </script><hr /> </font> <font size="2" face="Verdana, Arial"> for resturants you should go to this place on waikiki beach called Gauchos its an Argentinian resturant. i know its not hawaiin food but dam they had sum of the best food on Oahu.
