[QUOTE="GetawaysRus, post: 800928, member: 3821"] Yes, Hawaii is different. Hawaii is the USA, so it has a well developed economy. It is more like visiting home, and it's an easy place for an American tourist. I agree that the Caribbean can be beautiful, but I've been disappointed with the poverty on many of the islands I have visited. You have the beautiful beaches and the fancy resort hotels lining the beach in the Caribbean, but if you go one or two blocks inland, on many of the islands you will unfortunately discover people living in poverty. Another very nice thing about visiting Hawaii is island hopping. Even though it is one state, the islands are remarkably different and this allows a marked variety of experiences. I have visited Oahu, Maui, Kauai, and the island of Hawaii in the past (on a couple of different trips) and enjoyed each island in a different way. Also, if you ever get the hankering to go all the way to Asia, a stopover in Hawaii can be fun if you can arrange it. Or if you plan to visit the western US, you can possibly tack on Hawaii. Of course, I live in California, so Hawaii is not nearly so long a flight for me as it would be for you. Still, your 39K Hawaiian miles are just begging to be used. [/QUOTE]
