HAWAII BY SEAPLANE
Listener Ricardo emailed in with a question about exploring Oahu by the air.
Dear Jennifer and Dan, thanks so much for the fun show each week.  I have something that may be right up your alley.  Seaplane tours.  Do you have any experience with seaplane tours of Oahu?  I know there are many companies that feature helicopter tours, but my girlfriend has a fear of helicopters.  Believe it or not, she said we could do a seaplane tour.  And advice and budget ideas welcome.
Ricardo and Renee from Asheville, NC

Dear Dan and Jennifer, my fiance proposed to me on Christmas Eve and took me to Hawaii the following day.  To mark the anniversary, we would like to throw a Holiday Luau party for friends and family.  Any ideas for some easy luau food?
Thank you, Teresa
Here is a great resource with plenty of food ideas and recipes!
