Big Island this weekend
Okay well I am going to hit the big island up before I leave Hawaii. I am going Sunday, and returning Tuesday, or Wednesday. I thought that enterprise was on the big island, but I can't find them. I really want to rent an Impreza while I am there, but now I don't know who has them and will rent to me. I am 22. Greg or someone else can you help? What should I do see there other than drive up the mountains, and see the Lava?

I will be on all sides. I think I will be staying in Hilo. I plan to drive, drive, and then drive some more. The car is going to need the following when I am done with it: new brakes, new tires, and a good oil change. Not because I am going to do anything crazy, just because I'll put so many miles on it.

808-331-2509 thats the enterprise in kona.
hilo is very very slow. however there are some good eating places in hilo. you just have to find them. the waterfalls are nice too. there is rainbow falls in hilo right by the hospital. if you are into good seafood(that you will have to cook) KTA(grocery store) always has some good seafood.
i suggest meeting up with delkwon and some other HIIC'ers. the roads are soooo much better. driving up to volcano is nice... and be sure to not spend too much time in pahoa
.. wait, if you are all hippied out- then you should fit in!
anyways, thats all i have for now.

If you like good sushi, Nihon restaurant (in Hilo) has a good sushi bar. The sushi chef's name is Roy... He's really good. I try to eat there when I can (whenever the wallet allows anyway).
Gdogg mentioned seafood, and visions of sushi went through my head, so I thought I'd mention it.
