"Not me but I live in Hawaii and someone I know said a tourist once asked him if the water went all the way around the island.
Another friend said a tourist asked if they could just swim under the island (snorkel, actually, not even SCUBA) to get to the other side.
My husband’s cousin once said she wanted to get her dad’s RV and drive from California to Hawaii to see us.
Yeah."
