"Pono" means rightness and balance, optimistic and full of hope. So befitting of our journey with Pono.

Hi there....sounds like you had a wonderful time. Just wondering how much walking is involved and the terrain? Really rough, kinda flat or what? I have a new left knee as of 15 Jan, so have to be kinda careful. Think my husband's going to be a real pain about this. We leave the 28th and I know we won't be doing as much as we usually do on a trip to Hawaii, but you made it sound so great! May have to save it for a trip back. Thanks for your help!
