OK, I admit it..I”ve always thought that blasting around on a jet ski would be fun, but I’ve never done it. I like going fast as much as the next guy, but I’ve just never brought myself to do the jet ski thing. Maybe I can rationalize it by saying “it’s a young person’s thing,” …

And like the little kid
Still a good way to live out one’s Jack Nicklaus or Tiger Woods fantasies (no, not THOSE fantsies…shame on you for even thinking that), miniature golf is as much fun today as it was back in the 1950s and 1960s in its heyday. Looking for a fun, low-pressure way to unwind in the late afternoon? This …
If you’re looking for some excitement on a slow afternoon, this might be what the doc ordered. What could be more exciting than jumping out of a perfectly good airplane for no othere reason than thrill seeking? I’ll let YOU do the math on that one… But on the other hand, there is safety in numbers with this…a whole lot of people go make a whole lot of jumps every year without any significant decrease in the sky-diver population, so what the heck…grab that rip chord and take that first, really big step…
Just becasue you’re on vacation doesn’t mean you can’t get some exercise too! I think it would be fun to get out and see O’ahu by bike…lots of beautiful scenery and lots of nice roads. I recall very clearly riding up Tantalus Mountain in the 1970s…ahhhh, to be 23 again!
