If you are visiting Kauai, you have to go to Puka Dog!  It could be the most unique and delicious hot dog you have ever eaten. In Hawaiian, puka means hole, and Puka Dog makes their buns special, with a whole right down the middle.  Next the pour in some of their delicious relishes (special hawaiian recepies), or just your usual condiments if you choose.  And finally they slide in a premium polish dog. 

Their relishes are, mango relish, pineapple relish, papaya relish, coconut relish, banana relish, guava relish and star fruit relish.

Their is also a Puka Dog location in Oahu.

For more information on Puka Dog, for pictures, locations and the menu, go to http://www.pukadog.com

ISLAND WHAT??

Is it your first time planning a Hawaii vacation and you have no idea what all the “island talk” is about?  Is everyone asking you what island(s) your are visiting.. and you assumed there was only one???  You are not alone.  Many first-timers have the same problem.  When posed with the same question,   I remember thinking…I better check my ticket and a map: QUICK!  Maybe I can relieve some of the pressure by discussing some of the common misconceptions.  Listen carefully and you’ll sound like a seasoned pro!

WHAT ISLANDS ARE WE TALKING ABOUT EXACTLY??

(Simplified Version)

Oahu

Oahu is the place that most people think about when they consider taking a Hawaiian vacation.  It is known as the “Gathering Place”.  It is the most populated, most visited, and most developed of all the Hawaiian islands.  This is usually the place you think of when you “think Hawaii”.  It is where you will find Waikiki and Honolulu, Pearl Harbor, Diamond Head, and the Polynesian Cultural Center…etc.   Are you beginning to breathe easier? Hope so!

Maui

Maui is the second most visited and most popular island.  It’s not located in Florida, ( that’s Miami) common mistake for first-timers.  Maui has two popular places to visit… Hauna and Lahaina.   Hauna is known for it’s beauty.  It boasts rainforests, waterfalls, hiking, biking, and it’s famous Road to Hauna.  Lahaina is on the other side of the island. It is an old whaling town and has a popular waterfront shopping district.  During Dec-May you can spot humpback whales just off shore.  Lahaina offers great boat tours where tourists can see the whales up close. 

The Big Island (Hawaii)

Hold your breath because this gets a little confusing… The Big Island is Hawaii..  You heard correctly, it’s the “real” Hawaii.  It’s name is Hawaii.. Do you get it?  Is it making sense?  Maybe I’m the only one who gets confused (highly possible)!  The Big Island happens to be bigger than all the other islands combined (hence the name) and it has active volcanoes!! It has two sides; Hilo & Kona.  The Hilo side is the rainy side.  It has waterfalls, volcanoes, and rainforests.  The Kona side is the sunny side.  When you’re on Kona you’ll enjoy luxury resorts and ocean activities.  It’s also entirely possible to visit both sides while you are there if you are willing to do a little driving.

*Halfway point… it’s okay if you need a little break….it’s a lot of info!

Kauai

It is the oldest island and is called the “Garden Isle”.  It is very lush and has tropical rainforests.  You can visit lots of beauitful and historic places on the island.  It’s small, but offers the “Old Hawaii Experience”.  It doesn’t have much of a nightlife, but it is a great place to relax, read a book, and escape!!

ISLAND HOPPING

One more thing I thought I should mention is “Island Hopping”.  You’ll probably hear about this from all your Hawaii veteran show-off’s!  “Island Hopping”, is simply visiting more than one island while you are in Hawaii.  You don’t have to jump anything or hop around; you just have to take a short, reasonably priced flight. Some Hawaii pro’s recommend seeing 1-2 islands for every 10 days you stay in Hawaii.  It could get pretty complicated hopping around all the time….

Hopefully this information helps you plan and enjoy your vacation…next time we will practice our Hawaiian vocabulary!!
