Travelog - Hawaii#5

in #busy6 years ago (edited)

I haven’t updated this series since the #4 post in March. Been tied up with other posts, family, and work. Please bear with me and hope you’ve been doing well lately.

Not to let the momentum that has been mounted around this travelog slip away, here I’m giving you the latest episode #5. If you haven’t caught the #4, please, this is the link.

This episode is taking you to a ranch that you may have seen in cinema or on television. If Hollywood boulevard is the most talk-about tourist attention glueing the filming industry to Los Angeles, this probably-not-to-be-missed spot might serve that same role in Hawaii. It’s been an ideal filming location, movies and tv series, Jurassic Park, Lost, Pearl Habour, Windtalker, and Jumanji, to name a popular few, were filmed there where an outdoors setting with tropical weather, rocks, mountains, and bushes were central to the plot Source.

The place, if you've done an internet search, you already know whereabouts of it. Kualoa Ranch is on the east coast of Oahu Island and 59.4 km north of the national park appeared in the last episode. To get there, you must join a guided tour but a pickup and drop-off service at your hotel is optional for USD 15 per person Source.

The ranch, open daily from 7am to 6pm, is a 4000-arch, privately-owned nature reserve. An entrance fee is required proportional to the type of tour or activities you have joined Source.

Can you imagine how large a 4000-arch piece of land is? It is equivalent to 4,000 football pitches or 174,240,000 Square feet. Now you can visualise and picutre how gigantic it is in your mind.

The ranch is split into themes or sections or tourists to explore and immerse into the natural environment. From scheduled filming locations tours, rafting and boating, jungle adventures, beach activities, horse riding, cycling, ATV buggy adventures, to zip line challenges. Age, weight, and height restrictions apply to certain activities. Prices are from USD 40 to US 130 per person Source.

@prch, thank you for your post. I really liked the photos and your story. Still I decided you support, because you post in discord invisible, because there is no opened with photography. Yesterday I had a similar situation and all participants passed by my post. So I noticed you and decided to correct the "injustice". Good luck on your travels!

Thank you so much for your help, you are so thoughtful and helpful. :-)
