    I love your video! Your video was so much more insightful than other videos. You answered a lot more questions and went in-depth with it. I’ve watched so many videos that didn’t have half the information you talked about. Please make more videos! You two are amazing. 👍👍👍👍I will definitely be following you guys. 🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰

    Good video. The Big Island is one of our favorite vacation spots. There is great snorkeling, hiking, horseback riding, zip lining, paragliding, whale watching (roughly December through about April), and deep sea fishing just to name a few activity opportunities. It is also the only US state that you can see the Southern Cross star constellation (as well as star watching in general).

    I live in Hilo (Wainaku, specifically) and my wife and I enjoy taking our time experiencing all over. We have lived here for several years now and always seem to find something new. I live 250ft from the cliff, overlooking Hilo Bay. Cruise ships come very close to our house (1/4 mile away). It is amazing. We never get used to it. I paint free, large murals on the island and my wife teaches part time at the University. We love Hilo. Please make sure you have solid employment and or money of substantial amounts before moving here. Mahalo!

    But I can’t be the only one who thinks 1.5 hours is a long drive after spending a day in a huge national park. That is such a long drive after a hard day of hiking

    When I last visited the Big Island we went to the top of Mauna Kea, to Volcanoes Park (walking through the lava tube was cool), went to all the colored beaches, did a lot of snorkeling, visited the markets, ate a lot of macadamia banana pancakes lol. Drove all around the island, so much to do and not crazy packed with tourists like Oahu was. It was good to watch your video and be reminded of some great times. Cheers from Seattle!

      Aloha, you’ll love it. The 1st time we went to Mauna Kea we did feel a slight difference in breathing not shorter breath but deeper. Nothing for concern but you may feel it, the 2nd time we went up we didn’t feel anything. If your in a tour I’m sure you’ll be in good hands but honestly nothing to worry about. Enjoy and thank you. Let us know how it went!❤️

  • @wmayfield567
    @wmayfield567 4 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    A couple things you need to talk about. First thing is the Pacific Ocean...it does not forgive if you don't pay attention. Too many tourists die every year because they don't heed warnings, especially at places like Rainbow Falls or Waipio Valley. The second, and most underreported, problem is the crime and homelessness. Those in power here don't want the world to know how bad it actually is because it will hurt tourism, which is the base of our economy now. I'm happy you had a safe trip to Hawai'i Island. Aloha, and mahalo nui loa for the video.

      There are two types of purchases.
      Fee simple = you own the building and the land. Very traditional American purchase.
      Lease Hold = land is owned by Hawaii and you own the building or the condo association does but a lease on the land is paid for staying. Lease hold usually looks cheaper but the lease payment is not usually factored in to a mortgage. Due diligence is important in this type of purchase.
      I hope this helps.

      Great points! We are no scientist here. According to Wikipedia: "Most of the volcano is underwater, and when measured from its oceanic base, Mauna Kea is the tallest mountain in the world, measuring over 10,000 m (33,000 ft) in height." How the measure from the ocean we have no idea.

      Everest is the highest peak (i.e. highest, which indicates a measurement from sea level) at 29,000 feet. Mauna Kea's height or elevation is 14,000 feet, but when measured from it's base, is 33,000 feet and therefore the tallest (the info you guys gave in the video was incorrect! You accidentally gave the height from sea level and not the base distance from base to peak. But the video is still awesome and informative otherwise!).
      In fact, if you measured Everest from it's base to it's peak, it wouldn't even be the tallest land-based mountain; Denali in Alaska would be. Everest's base starts at 17,000 feet, which results in a 12,000 foot rise, whereas Denali starts at about 2,000 feet and goes to 20,000 feet, which results in a 18,000 foot rise. Now, many websites claim Everest's base is at sea level, which I wholly believe is untrue, so the info on this is spotty, but it makes sense :) .
      But yes, "heights" are from sea level, but if you want to know what the *tallest* mountain is, you have to measure from it's base, and that therefore means Mauna Kea is the tallest mountain in the world
