Default Hawaii Vacation! Things to do?

Hi everyone!

I'm heading to your great island Hawaii next week. I have no idea what to do/see. First time there with my new wife. Aaaww...

What are some good things to see while there? She wants to see some tourist attractions and shopping malls. I'd also like to see some of the natural settings. My friend recomends Byodo Temple? Waimea Falls?

What are some good restaurants?

PS Any car meets going on? Hehe... Hope she'll leave the island as my wife.
Thanks in advance!

So wait. are you coming to O'ahu, or going to Hawai'i? 2 different islands. and both have a Waimea.. lol . I don't know where Byodo temple is. anyway, just look in our seection, we always have car meets, just ask how o get there. We are on O'ahu by the way. Obviously there's a million things to do for tourists, Ala Moana is a huge mall.. you'll find plenty to do.

I'm going to be at Hawaii, the big island. Guess the person who suggested it doesn't know what he's talking about.
Is Ala Moana on the the big island? How's Waimea?

Thanks.

Ala Moana is on the island of O'ahu. Hawai'i is nice for checking out the diverse landscape. Make sure you go to Volcano National Park.

Get ready to chill out on big island. There aren't any huge malls or crazy shopping there. But you could drve to Ka Lae (south point) and jump of the cliffs. Pretty good thrill as I would estimate the cliffs to be 45ft or higher in some areas.
