Hawaiian Trivia

From the shuttle bus driver today:
-The tallest mountain from top to bottom is the Big Island in Hawaii. Everest is the highest in elevation.

-The state fish is Humuhumunukunukuapua’a, which is also the longest word in the Hawaiian language.

-Kauai is basically the “movie island.” You’ve seen in it South Pacific, Jurassic Park, Raiders of the Lost Ark, King Kong (the remake) and Six Days and Seven Nights. The town in Lilo & Stitch was modeled after a town called Hanapepe, which is located on the other side of the island from where I am.
