I've googled, but find posts saying both yes and no. Anyone with recent experience know if there are lifts at the pools, and if so, which pool(s)? Thank you.
We'll be docking 8am. Figure we'll be off the ship around 8:30 am. We need to pick up a rental car (Enterprise) at HNL, with a suitcase and probably 2 camping chairs.
Does it make sense to take the W Line Bus, or is Uber/Lyft better? Of course the bus is much less expensive, but is it pretty convenient and near the rental desk? Will the bus be very crowded around 8:30 am?
(This will be for late September)
Returning to Oahu and wanted to go back to Ai Love Nalo, but see it's out of business. What's taken its place? If it's a restaurant, is it worth going to? Mahalo.
What I'd like to understand is how using Wise debit actually saves me money compared with using either Schwab debit or any US-based credit card for transactions (ones with no foreign transaction fee).
Traveling from US to New Zealand and Australia. We'll be paying for hotels, public transport, dining, uber/taxi, sightseeing, etc. Will be in NZ for about 3 weeks and Aus for 1 week.
I already have a Schwab debit card that I've used for shorter (less expensive) trips overseas. I'll use that for getting cash out of ATM's.
Basically, the title. I'm going to grill salmon filet ahead of time to serve chilled at a cookout. (The grill will be in use during the cookout for meat, and there are pescatarians among us who will eat cold salmon.). My question is whether I should portion the salmon prior to cooking. I don't know if it will just wind up flaking apart once it's cooked, or if I'll be able to make nice looking portions.
My plan is to season it (usually use ras el hanout) and grill it, not marinate it in any way. However, I'm open to suggestion on how to make it really delicious. Smoking it is not an option.
Thanks
For years, we enjoyed going to Macky's Shrimp Truck, but haven't been to Oahu since just before COVID. We're heading to Oahu in September and I just found out Macky's is permanently closed. Can you recommend a really good shrimp truck? We'll have a car, driving from Waikiki on 83/Kamehameha Hwy up to Haleiwa. Mahalo.
Our ship visits Kodiak on a Sunday (8am-5pm) in mid-September. It looks like all the museums will be closed. What can you recommend for us to do instead?
Also, any recommendations for the best soup in town at lunchtime would be most welcome.
I'm planning to take Coastal Pacific to Picton, then the afternoon ferry from Picton to Wellington on the same day. Stay in Wellington that night and one more night. And then take the Northern Explorer from Wellington to Auckland.
I've read that the ferry is sometimes cancelled or very late. What happens if the ferry I have tickets for is cancelled/postponed? Would my ticket be good on a ferry later that night or the next morning? (I will be traveling without a vehicle, in case that's relevant). Is there ever a time when there's no ferry running for more than 1 day?
Our cruise this fall is supposed to go to Dutch Harbor. I do hope we make it, but I know it's very common to not actually be able to go there. I'm looking for insight of where we might go instead. HAL Noordam (already also scheduled for Ketchikan, Sitka, Kodiak and Anchorage, Hubbard Glacier and College Fjord)
This is our first cruise to Alaska, so I'm sure wherever we wind up that day will be amazing. Just wondering if we might repeat a port, or go to a different port, or not go to any port that day.
Any insights? Thanks.

What would you add or subtract?
We are in our mid-60's, no kids with us. As stated, we're looking for a nice relaxing day out and getting to see some of the beauty of Maui. Please don't suggest anything strenuous.
Will Uber/Lyft be easy to get at the port? Taxi? The ship's excursion is $209 per person, which is crazy.
We're in port 8am-8pm. In addition to Maui Ocean Center, what else would you suggest? We're in our mid-60's and need "easy going" to "moderate". Lunch/dinner suggestions are very welcome.
I went to Washington St to put some food in the community fridge like I have in the past, but it seems to be gone. Can anyone tell me if it's moved to a new location? Or is there another community fridge in Wilmington (or nearby) where I can drop off some food?
Many thanks
