Have you ever seen a photograph on a travel blog that took your breath away, read a post that changed your opinion of a destination and left you desperate to go there or found a travel tip that made you wonder how you managed to get by without it? I certainly have.

The stars were aligned in perfect formation for me when The Kauai Adventure Club announced a hike beyond Mahaulepu Beach to Kipu Kai. Of all the epic Kauai hikes, this is a trek beyond the well traveled scenic south shore trail and it was held on a week day when most responsible people are working.

Earlier, I wrote my Top 10 Travel Tips. I had a number of people offer suggestions, so I thought it was time to write the next Top 10 Travel Tips.



Hope these are helpful!



1. This one is from a friend. Pack with travel cubes – or any other type of bag within a bag. This helps keep clothes organized and when security rifles through everything, “things” won’t go flying.



2. Wear shoes that slip on and off easily to the airport – I like Dansko.



3. Drink…

Travel Tip Tuesday: How to Find the Best Airfare in 2012

I must first start with a disclaimer.  I am originally from New York City so I have a very specific idea of what constitutes the perfect pizza. That is not to say New York has perfected pizza. …

Thumping bass coming from behind a metal door with no name. Dodgy people hanging out in front of what looks like a grungy, crumbling, graffiti-covered factory.  This is the stuff uninhibited, hedonistic dreams are made of.

When one thinks of German cuisine, images of platters of pork sausages, fried potatoes, and saurkraut come to mind.  The reality is not so far off though the above images are more associated with the southern German gastronomy.  The city of Munich even offers…

The stage was set for the Kauai Hawaii running world with its third annual marathon. A thought kept turning in my head, was it even possible to be competitive or be concerned with 'personal bests' in a venue such as this? A setting that naturally evokes ooohs and aaahs, and has taken the travel industry by storm as one of the best places to kiss. Yes, that's what I was thinking when I fell asleep.…

One of the best things to do on Kauai in mid July is to attend the annual Koloa Plantation Days celebration. I am biased I'll admit, its a time when a great number of former sugarcane plantation workers are gathered in one place and between great events and shows we can share a few stories about 'the good old days'. With this being the 26th annual event our stories are becoming as tall as the…
