Magnum, P.I. For a Day - Living Large While in Hawaii!
We recently returned from a short trip to Hawaii, and though it could have lasted longer, boy what a trip it was! We were hoping that we could find a Magnum, P.I. tour while on the island, but that turned out to be a more difficult task than we had anticipated, so we ended up making our own! Unfortunately, we were unable to find any wealthy and reclusive authors to hire us on as Head of Security, so we had to settle with renting an open top sports car and a nice beach front house for the weekend! Not quite the same as working for Robin Masters, but similar enough for our tastes! Plus, we weren’t shot at, chased down or assaulted by any faceless villains, so we can’t complain!
Like Southern California, Hawaii is perfect country for a convertible; the weather is spectacular and the views from the coastal roads are to die for! In fact, let us offer our recommendations if you have never been or are planning on going back to Hawaii in the near future: rent a convertible! One person who seemed to be heeding our advice (or at least we would like to think so!) was George Clooney, who we saw touring the island in a Corvette! Though we may have opted for a Ferrari or Aston Martin ourselves, we can’t fault the man for his choice. With classic American styling and a large V8 under the hood, a Corvette is definitely not a bad way to get around Hawaii. And Ferrari 308s, despite their popularity with Magnum, P.I., are becoming harder and harder to find these days, so that clearly wasn’t an option!
