What are the best locations for a trip to Hawaii?|152003

Have free hotel in Kauai given to us for up to 1 wk. Are considering going to other islands in same trip. Any recommendations for islands and/or things to do on each?

Maui is awesome. Lots to do. Scuba, snorkeling, parasailing, luaus, dinner cruises. It_s a gorgeous place. Enjoy!

My favorite island was Lanai - beautiful, peaceful, and friendly people. But a word of caution, it is very quiet - no night life, limited restaurants and the airport reminded me of the show _Wings._ However, if you want to get away from it all - this is the place to do it. You will feel like you have your own private island. Be sure to go to Hulopo`e Bay and see if you get to swim with the dolphins - it is amazing!!

I also went to Maui and Oahu. My recommendations there are:

Oahu
Arizona Memorial
Lanikai Beach

Maui
Haleakala sunrise
Old Lahinia Luau

Have a great time!

Hawaii Oahu Waikiki

Although many adventurers choose Oahu for the luminous beaches and shimmering waters, there��s a wide array of attractions on this island wonder. Brushed by sultry breezes and infused with the scent of exotic flowers, this lush hideaway will kindle the romantic passions within you. Hike to the crest of the world-famous Diamond Head to watch a blazing sunset over Waikiki Beach. There are endless rainforests and mountains to explore. Catch glimpses of cascading waterfalls, rare birds and the explosive colors of wild orchids. Surfers come from around the world to catch the swells at Waimea Bay, the gentle break at Sunset Beach and the spine-tingling Bonzai Pipeline. Other water diversions thrill as well, including jet skiing, sailing and kayaking. Honolulu is a bustling city, overflowing with incredible shopping, unequalled dining and energetic nightlife. And no trip to Oahu is complete without a visit to the stirring museum honoring those who died at
Pearl Harbor.

What is the closest place to San Francisco where it snows?|162034

I_m doing research for a story I_m writing and was wondering if there is anywhere the characters could travel where there may be snow. Thanks!

Usually, you can see snow in Mt Hamilton in San Jose, Mt Diablo in Walnut Creek and Mt St Henela in Napa.

It only lasts for a couple of days.

The sierras. Your characters could drive there in 3 hours if they live in the bay area. If you just need a little snow, Mt. Diablo get a tiny bit a few times a year, and that_s in the east bay.

to be very specific, its not lake tahoe. the closest place it snows near sf is mt. tamilpas, it dosent snow every year but thats the closest.

Lake Tahoe area. Just take I-80 east. I_m orginally from Sacramento, it takes about 1 hour and 30 minutes from there, so I_d just add on a couple more hours.

Lake Tahoe. It is a coupe hours away, but it is worth the trip for your characters. Hope that helps!

How can I park a moving truck overnight on the upper west side of Manhattan?|137398

We are moving my daughter to W. 102nd street on Friday, and need to park the moving truck overnight Saturday night. Can anyone suggest where and how we might park the truck? It is a 16 foot Penske truck.

Chances are this is not going to be an option. Naturally it_s too big to put in a garage, so to park in the city your best bet is finding a spot on the street big enough. That being said, I_m not sure that you can park on the street without a permit, so be prepared to pay some parking tickets. I honestly think your best option would be to start looking into some _park and rides_ in Jersey or north of Manhattan. It would be further away, but parking in this city is a pain and costs big bucks. Good luck!

u cannot park commercial vehicles in NYC streets
minimum fine is 65 + tax
be careful
