Rudy's Hawaii trip begins on Maui, where he braves the twisting road to Hana with its cascading waterfalls and tropical splendor. Fire-knife dancers light up the night sky, and we sway to the rhythms of hula and slack-key guitar. Later, Rudy hops over to Hawaii’s Big Island for ancient petroglyphs and a helicopter tour of the world’s most active volcano. Tips on snorkeling and golfing.
