CITY NAVIGATOR This website puts Hong Kong on the map, at least a map on the Web. If you're searching for a specific restaurant, hotel or attraction, you can find it here and print out a map to get you where you're going. The site is linked to a mapping site and the online yellow pages, and also offers mappable details of Hong Kong's transit systems, shopping and nightlife.

HULA HELPER The official site of the Hawaii Visitors and Conventions Bureau, this is the place to start planning your trip to the Aloha Islands. This site is as complete as it gets, with accommodation listings that range from simple bed and breakfasts to over-the-top resorts, and it has great backgrounders on each of Hawaii's islands. It also boasts an events section so you can find the buzz when you get there, or plan your visit around a big event, like the O'ahu Ocean Festival in May. Surfs up, bruh!
