Carsick teen/road to Hana

So, we just returned from the trip. Did NOT attempt the road to Hana. DID take the road to Haleakala, starting off 1 hour after DS took a dose of meclizine (Bonine). DS did not get carsick at all! He did sleep the whole way back down after visiting the volcano, which I am sure was a side effect of the med, but that was fine.

Probably a little help from the altitude..

...or do it in 2 years....and let HIM drive! :)

I was thinking the same thing...

If they could do the road to Haleakala they could have done Hana in my opinion and experience.

I say this because I never get motion sickness of any kind. When my whole family threw up on a choppy Whale watching tour I was fine, but I did get sick going up the road to Haleakala. There may not be the hair pin turns like Hana but the road is winding and raises in elevation obviously.

So next time I'd suggest trying Hana with the Bonine or whatever and experience one of the most beautiful places on earth IMHO.
 
:(I have suffered from motion sickness most of my life. The older I get the worse it gets. However taking one Bonine a day, while traveling, usually works for me. It defiantly is enough for the Road to Hana. I like Bonine better than Dramamine, because it doesn’t make me sleepy.

I buy the generic brand at costco 100 tablets for $4.50. Less than 12 tablets of Bonine.

This is good to know. We'll have to try this Costco product because I do know how expensive the Dramamine is.
 
Joe,

Be sure and ask at Costco Pharmacy, because it may not be on the shelves. It wasn't when I bought it, a few months ago.
