any good place for camping? (Hilo, Volcano: hotel, home, scorpions)

[ggcd951]

I might be flying to hawaii for summer vacation but current quarantine rule exhibits 14-day quarantine mandatory. which means, I can not afford hotel that many days as in normal time, I usually go for 7 days at most. With 14-quarantine, which lends out to staying for two weeks in a hotel with no sightseeing, I had to reserve for minimum 3 weeks for 1 week for actual sightseeing.

Alternatively, is there a camping locations available? Is there any wild animal I could worry about if put up a tent in a remote area and stay there isolated for 2 weeks?

Campsites are not an allowable quarantine location

I seriously doubt that you would really fly to Hawaii to sit in a tent somewhere for two weeks. Wouldn't you be tempted to go somewhere to get food? Wouldn't you want to wander down to the beach and sit on the sand? Do you see how silly your question is?

Why not just go to a beach in California (if that is where you live). Come to Hawaii next summer.

One must provide a valid address where you will be staying upon arrival at HNL airport. A campsite would not qualify so you would either be sent back on next available flight or possibly housed at Hotel Incarceration.

But camping is great in Hawaii, and there’re several places you can camp for free at. One is just outside Volcano National Park. Another is at MacKenzie State Park. MacKenzie has a lot to offer, I’ve played Disc Golf there in a tournament.

Another place is up the coast from Hilo and Wailoa Park. If you don’t know where it is, you can easily drive right past it. It’s cool because you camp down by the ocean. It can be a bit windy, but that didn’t bother us. Maybe others know which park I’m talking about. There’s a working lighthouse by the ocean. The only thing to look out for there are scorpions, but they’re big and hard to miss.

There are many other places to camp however.

Also, the 14 day quarantine is to be lifted August 1st. But you will need an FCR coronavirus test within 72 hours upon arrival.

Currently, the plan is that the quarantine will be lifted August 1. With the way COVID cases have been rising, that may change. We won’t know until closer to that date what the governor will decide to do.

Killer opihi are a constant menace on the Islands, especially when camping near the beach. Of course, rampant cannibalism is the other deterrent to happy camping.

Never camp near a home with a carport filled with freezers.

A renege from Ige could put him on the cover of Time magazine as "Person of the Year".

That or "Wimp of the Year". Take your pick.

He'd be in good company with Adolf Hitler (1938), Joseph Stalin (1939 and 1942), Nikita Khrushchev (1957) and Ayatollah Khomeini (1979).

That is more than likely the most insidious, asinine piece of crap you've ever dropped on this website, and that's covering a lot of crap.
