+1Trust me that the Muslims in MLE are much friendlier than the imposters that will greet you with those flower rings at LIH. The Hawaiian "Culture" is possibly the fakest one I've ever seen with the exception of Native Americans. On my last day in Hawaii I told my wife that if one more idiot put on a fake smile and said Aloha to me I'd deck them.

Only one question, have you actually been to LIH or ITO (or ideally MKK) or are you one of those HNL/OGG drive-byes?
Is the "Culture" so different in LIH? Not knocking the Islands themselves. Just the whole attitude and service level there. Hawaii is a great place to vacation, just IMHO, not worth the travel time from the East Coast as opposed to other destinations
As I thought Reminds me of the moshul of the guy who asks his wife to make a royal meal like eaten by the kings but then substitutes poor ingredients for everything and then judges the dish based on that.
In the nemshal, the poor ingredients are?
Did you fly into MKK? Cool!
