They are very efficient.

Rude 911 dispatcher purposely ignored my noise complaint…read more I was woken up at 4:30am in the morning because a group of loitering squatters were sitting on the street talking loudly and obnoxiously from obviously too much alcohol on Cartwright Rd in Honolulu. After the first call (male voice dispatcher) a patrol car drove by them, the group simply moved further up the street and once the cop car left the scene, they were back at it. Loud and belligerent! The second time I called the 911 dispatcher (different voice lady) was rude to me and asked me if I wanted to meet a patrol car downstairs regarding the obnoxious drunk group of young people. "Why can't they send another patrol car to ask the group to leave!" Of course the 911 dispatcher never called for another patrol car. I guess this is the kind of government service that we pay so much in taxes for which is lousy. Who cares if law abiding citizens who work everyday and pay high taxes for the rail can't go to sleep due to inconsiderate drunks. Worse is when the government service 911 dispatcher is rude to you on the phone and never calls for a patrol car. I am appalled in this matter!

But…read morestill I shouldn't have to be afraid in my house, so I called the police to make a report and I The 911 operator was awesome she calmed me down and sent someone right away. The police officer that came to my house was awesome. Not only did he listen to everything I said and wrote it down, he helped me pick up the stuff that had been scattered around and he even helped me stack the rubbermaid containers that had been taken down. Being a former military police officer I didn't expect them to take prints b/c of the type of containers, since they have a rough surface wouldn't print. But, he noticed one of my containers was smooth, he said I think I can get prints off of this one. Unfortunately he didn't have the stuff he needed to take the prints so he called for another officer to come out. He stood there with me and calmed my nerves quite a bit, told me that I wasn't stupid and it happens. Just from now on make sure I close the garage. He also talked to me a lot about where to go in Hawaii to have fun with my children since we haven't been on the island very long. After printing the container, he packed up and told me that if I needed anything not to hesitate to call them back and also if I noticed anything else was missing to just call and tell them. I really appreciated how much better I felt knowing that the two officers whose names I can't remember right now are patroling my neighborhood. They took the time to actually make me feel like they cared and gave me some great tips on things to look out for in the area as well as where I will want to live once my lease is up. This week I received in the mail a follow up letter from the Detective that has been assigned my case. I'm not expecting that they will find the jerks that took my stuff based on the prints they took of the container. However, as criminals always do, they'll screw up and I am confident that the officers in this area will catch the bastards!! A SPECIAL THANKS THE THE WAIANAE BRANCH OF THE HPD for making me feel welcome here and safer than I felt that awful morning, your job is often thankless so you should know that there are people out here who appreciate what you do everyday.

The point is that the lady tried very hard to find my wallet and I am very thankful for that.

You can be the best driver, but you come across a bad driver, all it takes is a bad driver and someone can end up dead. You really need to look ahead, plan ahead in case a car is coming towards you, and see where you can pull over to let oncoming traffic go. It's also recommended that you go West to East on the highway (come up from the South) as the hardest part of the highway is the West part. You also can't honk to warn you're coming down the road as to people's surprise, people do live in that area on that puny road. You have been warned.

Road to Hana is totally overrated in my opinion. We conquered the Kahekili Highway which has been…read morereferred to as one of the most dangerous roads in the entire world. The journey includes the best majestic coastal views and lush greenery I have ever seen. The kicker? The road hugs the edge of the sea cliffs and is very narrow (often just one lane), with many blind curves and no guard rails. One-lane bridges are common, requiring drivers to yield to oncoming traffic. Kahekili Highway was one of the mountain roads very few people knew about - which is probably what made me love it even more. I was excited and scared at the same time. My adrenaline was pumping from a combination of the picture-perfect views and the possibility of meeting another oncoming vehicle on the narrow cliff. Road to Hana was way too touristy. When everyone I spoke to and every blog told me to do it, I should have stayed away from the overrated ride that left me underwhelmed.

The view of the Koolau mountains never gets old and since it rains quite a bit in Kaneohe, the mountains are almost always green and vibrant.

When driving into Kaneohe or anywhere near the Marine Corps Base, you'll see the green hill with a…read morewhite tower structure at the top. If you have military access, you can take the short (but steep!) hike up to a beautiful view. If you come in through the main gate, you'll head straight and then turn left when you get to the golf course. Keep going past the Klipper until you get to the Officer's Club. The road up the hill is right across from the Officer's Club and you can park in the lot there. (It's also labeled as the overflow parking from the OC.) And yes, you can drive up the hill, but really I think that's cheating. (Do be careful of the occasional car if you are walking.) As I mentioned, the walk won't take you very long (maybe 10ish minutes), but it is a steep and winding road. Even during the morning hours, expect to sweat! You'll see Marines running up with their gear and you'll be in awe of how out-of-shape you are, no matter how fit you think you might be! (Just me?) Of course, the top provides some breathtaking views, which makes the trek worthwhile. Obviously don't touch or go into the restricted areas, but you can walk around a bit to check out the scenery. Depending on when you visit, I recommend getting lunch at the Sam Adams grill over by the golf course on the way back.
