All those names on the Arizona Memorial...they are still in the ship. It's been deemed too dangerous to remove them, with the oil and fuel leaking. So the ship is now the tomb for all the crew. Ship mates that did get out, as they die, if they want to be interned there, they can be. Most get cremated, then a diver goes down to place them (in the urn) among their shipmates.

You are a natural narrator,Nevaeh---nice job !!

As someone who was born and raised in Idaho (and will return there one day to live), but has lived a long time in western Washington, I couldn't live in Hawaii. Not because of the cost (well, partly because of that), but because of the monotony of the climate. Pretty much every day is between 75 and 90 degrees for a high. I like seasons too much. Yes, I reach a point each winter where a week in Hawaii sounds nice, and by the end of each summer, I'm so ready for it to be over. But no matter which your favorite season is, it will roll around again. I love fall most of all, with the crisp mornings, mild afternoons, changing colors of leaves - especially the aspens in Idaho turning gold. But I like living in an area were we cycle through the heat of summer, the cold of winter, and everything in between. So yeah, nobody asked, but for me, Hawaii makes a much better vacation destination than a home.

It was fun to see the trip from another viewpoint! I think Hawaii is a great place to visit but I wouldn’t want to live there. There is a huge world out there. Stay home, save your money and make epic trips each year to new places. My oldest son travels the world for his job. I can tell you, the world is beautiful and worth seeing. After you’ve been around the world a few times, then choose your spot. You’ll never have any regrets once you’re well traveled. ❤

You definitely look like a local❤ So glad you had the opportunity to see the places your dad is from and share that with him. It's something you will always remember and cherish.

The clips with all the stairs so funny!

It's expensive cause you were shopping in Safeway!!! If you went to FOODLAND down the road where most locals shop, you'll find prices not that bad. I buy a gal. Of milk for $5-6. U can order other items online. Rent is what's the kicker. Lot of young ppl moving here just starting out rent studios or rooms, that can be interesting. And it makes a difference where u rent, what u can afford and ur willing drive, catch the bus, or rail for work. Ppl here, just have a hard time buying a home. With dad having ohana here, I sure there would be someone willing to help you out with a room or couch for a cpl of months for u to get the feel of living here, but you just need to pull ur weight.

0:48 "Hey guys pack your stuff, I'm taking you home" never gets old, so many shells, so many shells , ahhhh.

What a FUN video! I love your humor, the landscapes you captured and the range of emotions you showed us. Your videos are so enjoyable-can't wait for the next one. Love from MN.

You were listening to Metallica?? God bless your parents. You, darling, have been raised right.

Great video Navaeh. Very enjoyable. You may be nearly eighteen but don't let that stop you learning to swim. I didn't learn until I was that age and actually taught myself simply by going to the local pool and getting comfortable in the water and developing from there. You'll find things much more enjoyable if you do.

So enjoyed this video!! Your take on the Diamond Head hike was so funny - my sentiments on the uphill climb too…. I remember doubling over laughing after coming out of the tunnel to see all those stairs and my son at the top saying “c’mon mom!! You can make it!!” That was so many years ago and had no lights in the tunnel 😯 We live about three miles from Kualoa Ranch so you were all in our neighborhood😁

Nevaeh, Nice video! How exciting for you to visit the birthplace of your Dad. Although I've never been to Hawaii I have family members and friends that have and they all say how beautiful it is. I love to travel and have done my fair share. My favorite place has been Costa Rica. Been there several times. I've traveled throughout the USA and each place is special in it's own way. As a young woman I often wished I could live someplace other than Minnesota. However, upon returning from each of my travels I realized that there is "no place like home." So as much as I dream about living in other places my feet are firmly planted right here. Maybe it's because this is where I have family, this is where I feel most loved. I once stayed in Costa Rica for three months. I loved it there. When my visa was about to expire I made my way back to Minnesota. As I was about to get on the plane I was feeling sad to leave behind my new friends but realized how excited I was to go back home. So my suggestion is, if you feel you want to live in another area of the world do a test run. Visit for an extended period of time, like 3 months then return home. Once you are back home you will know if you want to make a permanent move. Thanks for sharing your Island experience with us. I always enjoy watching your videos.

Hawaii suits you so well.. Yes it looks expensive. I hope your life and dreams take you to where you want to be Nevaeh.

"spelled my name like the lotion" cracked me up. Neveah is probably one of the coolest teenager ever! awesome vid!

Hi Nevaeh 💖 looks like a beautiful place & you did an awesome job videoing your trip👌 Take care 🙏

Awesome video! Love seeing your take on the trip to the Island. Enjoy your sense of humor. Keep it up! ✌️❤😎

Great video! Hawaii is definitely worth the high prices. Last year I just bought a one way ticket to Oahu. Spent over a month living out of a $1,000 truck I bought on marketplace and surfed everyday. Well worth it!

So funny, I’m 59 and listen to Metallica too! Spans the generations. Loved this video young lady, it was very well done. Sending love from Kentucky.

Great video! Thanks for taking us along on your trip! So many beautiful sites!

Friendly and happy family!!! very interesting and beautiful girl, good luck!

What a great video! I love your humor😊. I've visited a couple islands for vacation and this last time, went by myself 😬 to house sit for several weeks which was a great experience. I didn't feel rushed to fit everything into a week like with a vacation and was able to take time to explore and take everything in. Something I'll consider for other areas of the US. Keep doing what you do! I look forward to the next videos.💕

Because of your video (and your parents video), there are a few thjngs I will put in my list to do whenever i actually get to visit the islands. I love your take on everything! ❤

I agree the prices are outrageous in Hawaii. I was stationed on Oahu for four years when I was in the United States Marine Corps, and that was about 28 years ago or so and the prices were outrageous then, so I can imagine how bad they are now.

Wow, those stairs were a lot. You would fit right in on the island. The islands are very expensive, been there a few times, there is no place like the islands. What a shock when you returned home because of the temperature change. I really like your videos.

Nevaeh, your videos just keep getting better, really enjoyed it.

It's so fun going along with you! You do a great job with the video and I suspect it takes a lot of time to edit it so perfectly. Aloha!

Can't believe you've grown up so fast Nevaeh. I've been following your parents' channel for quite sometimes with my other account. Your parents are cool and amazing, especially your dad. Keep up the good work and never leave home kiddo😉

How fun... my favorite vacation spot... miss the lush green colors... the flower in your hair looked great...

Loved this video. Hawaii looks beautiful. So glad you showed us around. Beautiful views

The views were perfect and a very beautiful place nevaeh! Glad you had a really great trip it definitely looked fun and super relaxing,, have a nice Sunday afternoon too..

The Arizona memorial is phenomenal. I’ve seen it 4 times and young lady Hawaii was expensive back in the late eighties when I was in the Navy

GREAT video. Thanks for sharing your fun with us.

My good friend retired on the Big Island and lives across the street from the ocean. During the last big volcanic eruption the lava river was only 4 miles from his home but having a rain forest in your backyard is amazing to consider with 10 feet of rain each year. So glad you shared this video with all of us and I enjoyed your experience with your fantastic family.

So enjoyed this video of your trip! Prices are indeed outrageous!

Love your sense of humor. I packed out laughing a couple of times. Good video.

Seeing Kaymani’s personality shine through your videos is great. We never see that on good simple living. That’s a testament to the great relationship y’all have.

Such a cute video! You're so good at this! ❤️

THANK YOU FOR SUCH AN "AWESOME VIDEO"!! ❤ I'M SO GLAD YOU GOT TO EXPERIENCE SO MANY WONDERFUL PLACES IN HAWAII. YOU ARE SO. LUCKY!!😘

What an incredible vaca!!! Neveah you’ve grown so much the last few years and it’s such a pleasure to be able to watch your journey. I think you’re one of the most beautiful women I have ever seen ❤️!! My fav thing about you is your funny quirky side and you’re the perfect mix of mom and dad with just the perfect amount of you 😉!! Thank you for sharing your life with us and I’m so excited for your future❤️!! Btw…. #metallicarocks 😎

Spent some time in Hawaii when I was in the service. It was about 6 months in when island fever set in and after visiting home it was better upon return. Yes, it is kind of expensive there, much like most downtown areas of most major metropolitan areas on the mainland. Swimming in the open ocean in the surf is definitely a skill, learning how to deal with things like undertow and rip currents. A couple of tricks with fins, if you have to wear them and walk, walk backwards or sort of sideways, otherwise walk out to almost waist level and put them on in the water. Seeing your family there makes me miss and remember the sights and believe it or not the smells. It's great you all had such a great time!

I'm very impressed with your skills! The story telling sequence, your narrative, your self confidence in front of the camera, wow! Well done you👏

You going up all those stairs was a crack-up. Love your content, beautiful family. ❤

Nevaeh, I love your video clips, so full of fun and light hearted!😍 Brings a smile to my heart! I love your sense of humour! 💗Guess what?! I also have this habit of collecting shells whenever I go to the beach!! 😊 Sending you love and God's blessing to you and your lovely family.

My maternal portuguese ancestors are buried in the cementary at diamond head. Beautiful hike up to the top. ❤️❤️🕊️🕊️

Such a nice trip. Your editing skills really portrayed the trip so well.

Cool, video. Love your prospective it was neat to see your take on your families Hawaiian vacation. Saw your parents a couple of weeks ago and was excited when you dropped yours. it’s kind of sad that everything is so outrageous out there. Like I know with me being in northern Alberta our prices are higher than like the city, but thinking that it being all the way across the ocean that yeah it’s kind of sad that everything is so outrageous out there.

It's a great place to live when you are 1st on your own. I got stationed there when I was 19 . I loved it, but it's very expensive to live there. I stayed for 14 years. I miss it so much, it is home to me.

We always enjoy your videos! 💕 Loved seeing your Hawaii trip from your point of view. After seeing your reaction to poi, I definitely don’t want to try it. 😝 Lol Thanks so much for sharing. ❤

Great video and looks like you had heaps fun and experiences. Visit the islands for holidays several times b4 deciding on any move. That milk price was even higher than our local shop in maungaturoto, New Zealand.

Beautiful video, on my bucket list. Love your humor/your videos!💜🙏🏻💕

When our daughter left home at 19, she had a budget all figured out. Food, rent, etc. I told her, "There's no such thing as a toilet paper fairy." I had always bought her shampoo, deodorant, etc. etc. AND her toilet paper. Twenty years later she said to me, "I ran out of toilet paper shortly after I left home. I laughed when I remembered you'd said, "There are no toilet paper fairies. You were right, but it took me 20 years to admit it to you." What a girl!!!

I live hawaii, you have to pick the right store to shop. Safeway has a time and place to buy certain things

Awesome vid!! When I was in Hawaii...I seriously wanted to move there..lol!! Great times ..are where you hang your hat..[ Home ]..! All else, Well..they're cool visits!! Plan,explore options..prepare!!! Be safe, n, enjoy!! Mah halo!!?? Thanks!! C ya on the next video !! 🤙🧙‍♂️🐺👍

Nevaeh, your video was great. Every activity looked amazing, especially collecting shells. Hopefully you can visit again soon , such a beautiful place .❤❤

Good video Nevaeh. Life dose have a lot to offer, we just have to chose wisely. Enjoy life and Good Luck what ever comes up. 🙏🙏👍👍🇨🇦

13:37 at least they have lights in the tunnel when your dad went on the hike as a kid you had to bring a flashlight and it was pitch black.

Pleasantly sweet and informative. Interesting point of view about incarnations realised for a picture 🤝

Shave ice babyyyyy!!!! I love it! I like KTA’s prices more

That was cool video. All those stairs......wow ❤

What a wonderful video - thanks, Nevaeh!! Very nicely done!!

Great video, Nevaeh! I've been to Oahu twice, too. I loved it!

Steak rave is delicious, you should check it out next time Also a small fannypack works perfect for shell collecting adventures.

I just love your videos. You are an absolute joy to watch. I love your humor. Good job !!

I found your channel because of your amazing parents ❤ y'all are to sweet, keep being you and you will go far in life!

Was a great video Nevaeh!👌, definatley thought the stairs were never going to end there for a minute😂

Good video Navaeh. You will figure this out in due time.

Yeah, I never liked poi either. Dad worked heavy construction on a road tunnel in 1969 and 1970, so I spent my sophomore year in Kaneohe, Castle high school. Loved it there.

Lovely place to visit. Key word visit. Thank you for taking us with you. God bless

That's so beautiful.glad you got to go.❤

Excellent episode Nevaeh!!! Way to go!!!

Nevaeh, you fit right in Hawaii. You definitely were raised right because you are smart, intuitive and beautiful. Very enjoyable to watch. ❤️

A video from Nevaeh! I love your videos. You have such a unique style!

Ya done good, girl. Like your sense of humor and adventurous? (with preferences) nature. Enjoyed the video of family and the Island!💖🌞👑✝️😃

Safe travels

Enjoy your content, Nevaeh!

Have a beautiful weekend!! And a very nice memorial day as well nevaeh ❤❤

I laughed at your "Nooooooooo!" dear upon seeing the steps. You were too happy to reach the end of your claustrophobic climb and be in the open space and yet.... "Nooooooooooo!" My granddaughter would have grumpily said "More steps and more steps again!" You are a very good, animated storyteller in video format!

Wow so pleased you had a great holiday neveah and yes you do fit in there but it will be there in 3 years time don’t be in a rush to leave home master the work force save your money then when you have life skills the world will be waiting for you much love from Tenerife❤❤❤❤❤❤

Love watching your adventures in Hawaii

Funniest part the stairs

It's good you realize you're 17 and not trying to live too fast. The years go by fast after you graduate college. Plus, you have a tight family cherish that for sure.

your content is so wholesome and very funny!! ❤

looks like an awesome trip

It's cool to see a different perspective from your video vs your parents channel!! Your family is awesome

Walk backwards into the water when you are in fins or put them on in the water. Used to have to do that boogie boarding at the Wall growing up

Great video. Thanks for sharing. ❤

Average Cost of Living in Alaska: $54,331 per year (Hawaii had the highest cost of living in the whole country.) To put a number on it, the average total personal consumption cost in Alaska is $54,331 per year, according to 2021 data from the Bureau of Economic Analysis .

So bright. So cheerful. So lively. So Hawaii!😊

Loved your video of the holiday 😂❤

I moved to Hawaii (Hilo on Big Island) when I was 18! I grew up in NH and VT so it was as different and as far away as I could possibly get from home and still technically be in the US. I went to college there...initially Hawaii Community College. I definitely recommend community colleges to save money on pre requisite classes in the first two years...even had some of the same professors as the university working there. After 2 years I transferred to University of Hawaii-Hilo. It was truly an amazing place to "come of age" and shaped me for the rest of my life. It taught me so many things like how to really slow down and appreciate the present moment and gave me a deep connection with nature and the ocean. Eventually I felt like I hit a glass ceiling there so to speak, with it just being such a small and isolated place, so I moved away to the San Diego which has a very similar climate (warning once you get use to that weather its hard to go back!). I still go back and visited every year or two since one of my best friends still lives there. Its a really special place for sure and might be fun for you to live there even just for a few months (just make sure you research and go during the best weather months of the year if you do that)!

Lol.. you are a goofball.. fun times! Your family is awesome!

Beautiful shells on the gulf coast of Florida. I'm a rock and shell hound. Love your vlogs

Dang soo jealous, well at least I got to live vicariously through your adventure...

One thing I never would’ve guessed is that you listened to Metallica. Actually, it’s great to listen to all types of music, it makes you as an artist appreciate and grow musically. Don’t ever change Nevaeh, you are a sweet young lady and I know your parents couldn’t be any more proud of you than what they are. By the way, I still have a few more minutes of viewing so I’m wondering if you ate any Spam while on vacation. Blessings to you and your family. Greetings from Naples Florida (Hawaii without the volcanoes). Haha❤❤

I just love your editing skills and the climb up the seaside cliff was exhausting! I could feel it. Your horseback riding, collecting sea shells and finding your fashion twin was priceless!

Do it!! You won't regret the experience!!

Great trip!! 🎉

Nevaeh, I just saw this music video and I thought of you and your Dad. I heard your mother say that you were not a fan of the Hawaiian music your father was playing and singing in Hawai'i and that you preferred classical music (!) She never mentioned Metallica. Well, the music your Dad listened to growing up was probably mostly the "Jawaiian" stuff with a reggae beat, which is still popular, but not traditional or contemporary-traditional Hawaiian music, which I love and have devoted most of my KZfaq Channel to. Your Dad also mentioned he never thought about letting you kids learn about the culture of your Hawaiian heritage and that he should have let you and your sister join a hula group (hālau) when you were in Washington. Hula is one of the best ways to become connected with and learn about Hawaiian culture because it involves Hawaiian music, dance, language, plants, instruments, history, legends, and stories of people and places, and more! There was o written language before the white missionaries from New England created an alphabet and books (starting with the Bible) for the Hawaiian language, so before 1920 when the missionaries arrived, the traditional chants and hula were the only ways the history, legends, lineage and description of events and people were passed on among the people and to the generations after them. Sorry, this comment got so long, but your Mom said you and your siblings liked history (and Iʻm a teacher). Anyway, this particular song, "Kuʻu Home O Kahaluʻu" means "My Dear Home Kahalulu," which is located on the Windward Side of Oʻahu, near Kualoa Ranch where you rode the ATVs. It was written in the 1970s by Jerry Santos, a legendary singer-musician who is still performing today, when he left the islands after high school -- just had to get away and "find himself" as your Dad understands, but after some time in San Francisco and elsewhere on the continent, he began to reflect on his life and feelings about home, so he wrote this song as a letter to his sister, who had also dreamed of moving away but had decided to stay in Hawaiʻi to be with family and take care of things she needed to do. He reflects on their idyllic childhood, riding horseback in the Koʻolau hills, catching fish in the mountain streams, and laughing and singing the whole night long..But then he realized that times and places had changed (and 100 times more now than in the 1970s), but he had to get away to find what he missed and accept what had changed. This song is so iconic, when people hear just the first few notes on the guitar, they immediately recognize it. This style of guitar-playing (kī hōʻalu, or slack-key guitar) is also unique to Hawaiʻi and Hawaiian music. You should hear the original by Jerry Santos, too. Itʻs so beloved, he is expected to play it every time he performs, so there are many video recordings of it. (I have several on my channel.) Just search for "Jerry Santos" and "Kuʻu Home O Kahaluʻu" will probably be filled in, or you can type it yourself. And ask your Dad if he remembers this song. Santos is a common name of Portuguese immigrants to Hawaiʻi to work on the sugar plantation like your fatherʻs ancestors. Sousa is a VERY common last name in Hawaiʻi. You probably have lots of cousins you didntʻ even know about ! I also wanted to share this video with you to show you the diversity of the young people your age, and I think you can see how you would fit in. The students are from Punahou, the top private school in Hawaiʻi, and Kamehameha Schools, the prestigious institution for Hawaiian children, established by one of Hawaiʻiʻs princesses, Bernice Pauahi Bishop. "Me Ke Aloha Kuʻu Home O Kahaluʻu" means "With love, my dear Kahaluʻu." kzfaq.info/get/bejne/iZ6Umqx1nL-ucZs.html
