Travel to Molokai and Lanai in Hawaii – Episode 206
by Chris Christensen Add commentscategories: usa travel
The Amateur Traveler talks to Pam Mandel of Nerd’s Eye View and the Holoholo Wale blogs about two less visited islands in the Hawaiian islands – Lanai and Molokai. Both islands are less developed than their neighbors and better islands for relaxing on a beach than filling up your time with excursions from the activity vendors. Molokai is the one of the two that stole Pam’s heart away with a more authentic Hawaiian experience. Molokai might be best known for recently sainted Father Damien who worked with victims of Leprosy (Hansen’s Disease) on the island until he himself succumbed to the disease.

I will love to visit Lanai and Molokai islands. As it is told in this article that both of this are less developed and very good for relaxing.

Thank you for the quick primer on these relaxed islands. I intend to go someday. Guest Pam mentioned a movie with Jeremy Irons about Father Damien. All I could find was a 1999 film with David Wenham.
