    Maybe we should put a requirement that every newcomer bring a acre foot of water or something.

    I see HI is also on the list. We’ve spent a lot of time there, and have considered moving, but several friends who have moved over there have ended up coming back to San Diego for various reasons.

    Summer all year long in HI (that’s the complaint I have heard from a few people I know who moved then moved back)
    Also not much to do unless you’re really really into water sports.

    For me I think SD has better weather than HI because it is generally cool at the beach most all year long and I like to walk on the beach.

    Walking on (or along) the beach in HI is kind of too hot in the day time.

    Doesn’t HI also have some serious mountains? Is there any settlement in the interior?

    There are some (very) small towns and both Maui and the big Island have some serious mountains (snow ski year round)

    And you can pick your climate, just go up or down the mountain.

    Could be nice I guess.

    the other Islands are kind of hot and humid in the interior most of the time, then you will also need some serious bug begone as well.

    HNL is my kind of town…but old and boring. I wish it were more like Miami Beach and Singapore with a Casino — modern and energetic.

    I’m looking forward to the completion of the skytrain/mass transit. By that time, I’ll be ready to “retire”.

    You walk in late afternoon/evening. it’s nice in Waikiki because there are lots of store and things to see.

    You can also walk along all the hotels on the beach. More things and people to see. I’m not into deserted beaches with nothing around. Plenty of them too.
