Illustrator, it's not a jungle. Hawaii is very westernized... with a favor of the ancient Hawaiian ways. Have you been to Hawaii, eh? Hawaii has lots of marine bases, that's for sure... folks live in those bases. Pizza Hut, McDonald's..... with a little of parasailing and windsurfing... hehe
Besides, you would love it in Hawaii.. lots of good looking young people wearing less clothes. Don't get me started about the beaches! And how you'd hike in a few locations that are very secluded to the public.... and reach your destination of the waterfalls, and swim there...driving around the island, looking at the aquariums.. and interesting attractions. The Aloha Bowl Stadium in Honolulu has the flea markets every weekend, and you can buy like 6 t-shirts for 20 bucks.. there is a huge place in Honolulu we know as Chinatown... the one in DC is very small!!....In Waikiki, you can walk downtown and shop... eat diverse oriental dishes... Japanese, Chinese, you name it. You also have opportunities to surf, windsurf, parasail, hang glide, scuba dive, snorkel, hike, look at museums and planetarium like the Bishop in Honolulu, meet new friends... and have cookouts. You can also go to the malls... the biggest one is in Waikiki.. called Ala Moana Center. It's HUGE even by the western standards.
You may be thinking of the islands that were formerly held by the Japanese.. plenty of war remains like an old hideout or tank, submarine.. no dead bodies, though! Those islands are Saipan and Guam... and other islands in the deep South Pacific.
