Don't Spend all your time running from one thing to see another. Relax slow
Down and enjoy the whole experience. This is the one place that I can totally
Disconnect from everything and really enjoy myself.
Yeah it can really get cold and even really windy on Mauna Kea, but those sweatshirts you can buy at Mauna Kea (at the base) and Hawaii Volcano National Park make create souvenirs Although a little pricey, they are really heavy/thick, warm, and good quality.How cold it can be at the volcanoes if going for sunrise or sunset. We have done both and loved the sights but froze. We had sweatshirts and blankets and learned to wear long pants and closed shoes (not sandals). Bringing hot coffee/chocolate helps too. Being comfortable just makes it that much more enjoyable and be prepared picture wise. We were up there one time at sundown and got a double rainbow and were able to see each of our own reflections in the rainbows.

When you get off the plane, you will not be met by girls with flowered leis.
As for the traffic... I'm a little bit worried about that as we are staying at the Wyndham which is in Honolulu. Not much we can do about that . Also worried as well, because we are just not too used to traffic . When in rush hour in Toronto, I feel like I will lose my mind!
