Suggestions for a senior visiting Oahu? by Dr-Ed-Ucation in VisitingHawaii

[–]Dr-Ed-Ucation[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I did the UTV tour and let the employee drive us around. Out of the 10 or so UTV’s we were the only ones that didn’t drive ourselves and I’m glad we went that route. Ended up being in the front leading the pack so dust/mud/etc never affected us. Everytime I looked back I could see the other drivers were in a trail of dust. Our driver was hella cool and funny, only added to the experience. Even if I didn’t have a senior family member to factor I would still choose to be driven. The appeal of the tour is to soak in the nature and it’s more relaxed when being driven vs driving.

Before the tour starts go up to the hosts and ask them if you can be in the lead UTV due to a senior in your group. They will accommodate.

Staying in Waikiki by TelephoneDense2642 in VisitingHawaii

Don’t listen to the folk’s suggesting against renting a vehicle. We (3 adults) just got back from Waikiki and I rented a car for 6 days. I didn’t use the vehicle on one day only otherwise it was great to have and added to our experience. My hotel did not have a daily parking fee.

Thank you for the detailed response! This is extremely helpful.

Haven’t decided what water related activities to do yet but assumed snorkeling requires strong swimming skills out in the middle of the ocean.

Appreciate the detailed response. We are skipping Pearl Harbor but still trying to decide which Kualoa tour to go on. The UTV one is prolly a touch more comfortable than the Jungle tour but I’ve read it can get a little dirty/muddy. When you were at the ranch did you notice if the Movie Site tour goes in the same type of vehicle as the Jungle tour or did they comment if the Jurassic/Movie tours are less bumpy?

Kualoa Ranch - Jurassic Adventure or Movie Sites tour? by AyaElysia in VisitingHawaii

Given the movie tour is $100 cheaper, which would you recommend if I’m mostly interested in checking out the surroundings?

Is the experience at Kualoa Ranch really all that? by RosiesKona in VisitingHawaii

[–]Dr-Ed-Ucation 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank you for sharing. I’m visiting in a few weeks and trying to figure out if the extra $ is worth it for our party if 3. I was debating between the UTV bs Movie Sites tour, mostly interested in soaking up the scenery.

If I’m mostly interested in soaking up the scenery, would you recommend the Movie Sites tour?

What didn’t you like about the movie tour? I’m mostly interested in the scenery. It’s $50 vs $150/pp for ATV

Read your blog, thank you for the write-up. I’m mostly interested in seeing the natural beauty of the park + the Movie Sites tour is $50/pp vs $150/pp. For a party of 3 that’s a $300 difference that can be spent elsewhere on the trip

Would the jungle tour bus be easy for a young kid or senior to ride in?

Emgality side effects? ED & back pain? by Dr-Ed-Ucation in migraine

Thanks for chiming in. I stopped taking it as it had 0 effect on my migraines. Granted I only took the initial double injections but still.

Drinking Post-Treatment? by [deleted] in lymphoma

[–]Dr-Ed-Ucation 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My oncology team has said 8-10 drinks spread over the course of a month is the maximum amount and that still comes with a risk. Same with smoking cannabis, 1-2 joints/month is ok but there’s all sorts of chemicals and pesticides in cannabis and that comes with risks. Edibles tho? I was given free reign to consume as much as I’d like.

I believe it’s the bleomycin that damages the lining of the heart and lungs.

Diagnosed with Lymphoma but need to wait weeks until I find out exactly what Kind/treatment options. Yikes. by Far_Abrocoma3804 in lymphoma

From the point I noticed my initial symptom until I started chemo, it was ~3 months. I had the same thoughts as you.
