Puuhonua O Honaunau-Be Forgiven At The City Of Refuge On The Big Island
In Hawaii, on the Big Island just south of Kona is the City of Refuge, known as Puuhonua O Honaunau. In ancient times, Puuhonua O Honaunau was the place where those who had broken laws could go to be forgiven and to avoid death. Today, it’s a place where people go to ponder what needs to be released in their lives. Seeking Forgiveness At Puuhonua O Honaunau While it used to be the place that people went for a second chance at life, I think when we ask for forgiveness from others and truly forgive others and ourselves, we give ourselves a second chance at life, too. Also, this sacred site is…

This Kauai Bike Path Will Show You Some Of The Best Views In Hawaii
One of things that I loved the most about Kauai, my favorite island in Hawaii, is that there is so much more to do than just lie on the beach all day. Don’t get me wrong, I love relaxing on the beach, but I also love to be active. Biking is one of my favorite activities, so when I learned I could rent a bike to see the east side of the island by following the Kauai bike path in Kapaa, I was all about checking it out. I rented my bike from Coconut Coasters Bike Rental which had a great choice of different styles to rent. If you leave…

Why You Don’t Want To Miss The Enchanting Kauai North Shore
Kauai is a small island and you might be tempted to book your hotel in a more central area. But I’d highly recommend staying in two different areas of the island on your visit. Why? You don’t want to miss the dramatic Kauai North Shore. Why Stay At The Kauai North Shore Sure, you could just drive to the North Shore and make a day trip of it. But, there’s something incredible about waking up and spending an early morning on the deserted beaches of the Kauai North Shore, not another person in sight. I stayed at the Hanalei Colony Resort, which was an incredible experience. And, I would definitely…

Be Astonished By The Magical Hawaiian Ko Olina Lagoons
When I first heard about the man-made Ko Olina Lagoons, which are surrounded by resorts, I wasn’t inclined to go. I usually prefer the natural beaches, those that are wild and untamed, away from the resorts and other people. But, my desire was to explore every inch of Oahu, the Hawaiian island, they are located on, so I went. And, not only was I glad that I went, I was completely astonished. There are four lagoons which really spotlight the incredible raw beauty of Hawaii. If you enter Ko Olina lagoons at Lagoon #1, you might become a little turned off. It’s filled with paddle boards, floaties, kids, and kayaks, and…
