After half a century in the midwest, we were able to retire early & I wanted to study environmental science & marine biology...UH-Hilo came into my search, but not having any Hawaii, and very little Pacific experience, we were a little hesitant (I had been diving as a volunteer for the aquarium & been on many Caribbean collecting trips)
Was able to find a copy of the Juvik's "Atlas of Hawaii", there was a line in thereabout how Chicago was the most continental area & Hawaii island was the most maritime....well, we wanted something completely different!
The largest difference is the weather does not change drastically in a couple of hours, here, really the only change is in the amount of rain...
