Our last stop for this trip is the beautiful town of Hilo.

Hilo is a old town with lots of local shops, eatery and cafe,

there is such a local vibe here and it takes you back to good old Hawaii.

Colorful chairs line a sidewalk under palm trees, with parked cars and shops. Signs read "Wild Heartist" and "Nector Cafe." Bright, sunny day.

I love the ambience of the entire town.

You just don't feel this kind of vibe on Oahu and if you want to get away where time flows little slower and the each day feel little longer big island is the place to be.

Street art on a weathered building features vibrant murals of faces and flowers. Text reads "YOU ARE HERE." Bright, colorful designs.

Traveling from Oahu to big island is such a short & easy trip but well worth the travel with lots to explore. I recommend it for anyone visiting Hawaii. It always a nice little get away but it's time to go back to Oahu!
