Unfortunately there are no ball pythons on the islands whatsoever. They are not allowed, but here is a journal of my trip thats coming to an end tomorrow morning

This has got to be one of the busiest Islands out of them all. Traffic is absolutely horrible, but the scenery is impeckable!!!

Busy Oahu

I have been house hunting for a friend and decided to take a moped rental out for a spin. It was for a local spin, but my wild side got the best of me and I decided I was going to make a trip around the entire island. Included is a map outlined in blue for the roads I drove on. Let me further suggest that if you are at all ever contemplating it, DONT! My but is sore after a 7 hour, 130 mile, 25mph moped ride, and my eyes are windburned. Im saving you the hassle by posting these pics...












Picture on the first 10 miles.

And last but not least. No journal and/or trip is complete without several large glasses of Wild Turkey 101 and a new Tattoo staright from the Islands....... Yes the condo is dirty, who cares after a ride like this one!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Enjoy,
Jeff

Thanks for sharing (and making us all jealous, lol) those awesome pictures. I've been to Oahu a few times before and have to agree that the scenery is breathtaking but the traffic is horrendous.

Hopefully you had time to snorkel in Hanauma Bay, as it is truly one of the best. And the view atop of Diamond Head kicks ass too (though the hike up and down is no piece of cake, lol).

And I can imagine one would be quite sore after riding around the island on a moped. Props to you for sticking it out though!

Nice tatts by the way!!

Thanks again for sharing...I'm beginning to realize I need a vacation!

You know picture 9.... LoL sorry had to say something. Beautiful place, maybe when I'm older I'll go there myself. Meet any of those women in bikini's on the beach?

Yes there are tons of beautiful women here. Its almost like beautiful women gravitate to tropical places

Thanks for all the comments to everyone. I couldnt resist a second addition as well from the tattoo artist and just got back. Man my arm is sore along with my eyes and rear end.

The tattoo artist said there are tons of Chameleons here, but I havent seen any.

If you guys ever get a chance to come here it is awesome. My favorite of all islands is Kuai, then Maui and Oahu is sure to be the last.
