oahu: Dude! Surf's UP!!! Makapu'u and Sandy Beach, EAST Shore Oahu, Honolulu, Hawaii - 01/07/07 02:37 AM
When I read the paper this morning, there was no mention of impending high surf on the South Shore of Oahu. Not that I was looking for it since winter months are the time for Oahu's North Shore to shine whether it be the Triple Crown of Surfing, or Eddie Aikau Big Wave International Surf Contests. Granted Eddie Aikau's contest takes place when the waves are 20+ feet or more.... but it sure was big for the South Shore today! I grabbed the camera after I dropped my client's off because I have not seen this is some time. 8 - 10 foot waves

oahu: Coming to Live in Hawaii? A Strategy for Relocation Success. - 01/06/07 02:00 AM
Moving to Hawaii is a little like moving to another country. We have many different cultures, many different customs and a hundred little neighborhoods to experience them all in. Some people come to Hawaii knowing exactly where they want to purchase. They have the advantage of traveling many times to the island or may take a friend or relative's word for a neighborhood. If you have never lived in Hawaii, be assurred that each individual's experience is unique. Each experience is never repeated because of the many differences and nuuance the island hold. One resource you might find helpful for rounding

oahu: Kahala - Peaceful Sophisticated Island Living, Honolulu, Oahu Hawaii - 01/01/07 01:43 PM
Near the slopes of Diamond Head exists a neighborhood with probably the largest quantity of nice level lots on the island. Kahala is known as the creme de la creme of the best places to live on Oahu. It's regal homes exemplify some of the pricier pieces of property in an area that is inhabited to a degree by part time residents who come the the islands for a few weeks. Kahala has seen a revolution of sorts. Once predominatly inhabited by Kama'aina (local people) progress and the Japanese boom in real estate back in the 1980's changed the face of the

oahu: Life on a Rock... Part 2 (6 part series) Thinking about relocating? - 11/08/06 05:06 AM
Bye bye Ms. American Pie. Drove my Chevy to the levee and the levee was dry. may be what you are listening to on your iPod as you get your Don Mclean on. Leaving the Continental US can be an angst ridden, snake pit in the belly of your stomach feeling, as you first venture into the unknown. When you pack, lock stock and barrel for our sunny shores having some idea of what to expect is always best. In other words it's a pretty good idea to come to Hawaii for a short visit to get a little acclimated and find

oahu: Life on a Rock... Part 1 (6 part series) - 11/02/06 03:39 AM
On the island of Oahu we have a 122 miles of shoreline around our island. Our average temperature is 85 degrees year round and our biggest insect is a cockroach. My favorite creature in Hawaii is a Gecko and it looks nothing like the Geico gecko. My island is comprised of many different enthnicities and is one of the most remarkable melting pots in the United States. We have some of the best water quality in the world and the cleanest air around due to the tradewinds that keep our island breezes flowing. Just a few fun facts... Waikiki Beach is one of the

oahu: Hawaii After the Quake... - 10/17/06 05:17 AM
For those of you not in Hawaii, I'd like to share some insight to what is happening here in light of the quake. I've heard from some people on the mainland thinking all islands had significant loss and damage. To clarify, our damage was most significantly sustained by the Big Island. There is some road damage, structural damage to business, hotels and homes. There were landslides, but nothing like I've seen in California. There was no tsunami generated... Our people, for the most part, went untouched. We had no fatalities and are very very lucky that the injuries statewide were minimal. Our most
