I wanted to pass along this great link for those of you that have a car for more than one tank of gas during your visits:

Gas Prices
...and if you do have a car, this is my best tip for someplace to drive to. This gets skipped over by lots of people. Closes at night, but the road has great city lights even when closed.

Gas Prices
thanks for that link; it%26#39;ll be helpful for my upcoming May 06 trip. who knew there could be several places cheaper than Costco on Oahu?
thanks for the link on Tantalus Drive; looking forward to that as well
Thanks for that!
Fuel is around the US$3.60 + mark down here at the moment, which is one of the reasons we don%26#39;t mind driving in the US :)
by next week +.15 gal we%26#39;ll be right up there with you, it%26#39;s like $3.25 right now in Maui. ugh. Fill up today!

Hi everybody and Happy Easter! Thought I would give this post a big ';bump'; back to the top just in case you all missed out on the great link provided by BoeingDad. No, not the one about the gas prices, that is depressing, but do treat yourself to the great photos posted on the other link...this one: portaloha.com/SecretsOfHawaii/RoundTop.htm
This site is quite the visual treat and tease to all soon to be visitors to the Hawaiian Islands, IMHO! Thanks again, BoeingDad, for being so thoughtful and letting us know about it. You have now made me once again reconsider my ';must do'; list and maybe try and add 2 more car rental days for our Oahu stay. I had planned on blowing the entire budget in Maui! Mahalo!

Cute, but none of those in my tank will get me over the Pali to where I work.

Well, it%26#39;s a bit of a mess right now:

And the views of the city lights at night are great, but the area is a hot spot for a Japanese drag race sport known as ';drifting.';
Skip it.
I have just heard the price in Germany is double of that here in Australia...*ouch*
Our prices have gone up even more since this post, as well.
BrightonBob....What a great way to put things in perspective. I guess $2.70 gal for gas is pretty darn cheap. Just think when and if it ever gets below the $2.50 mark we will all be celebrating. I am in Imlay City, is that what fuel is costing on your side of town?
