  1. FYI… Bio-Beetle has more then Beetles for rent…
    They have jettas, Golfs, even a jeep Liberty, all running on 100% biodiesel!
    They also don’t use toxic cleaners…. they offer their renters free use of coolers, books, etc…. and are totally into the whole green sustainability thing!

  2. Counting whales sounds like a lot of fun. Just to see them would be pretty cool. Sounds like your really into the eco green thing. Thats good to see. I have a friend that just went on an Hawaii Vacation. I’ll ask him if he seen any whales.

  3. @ Pam – Thanks for the additional information. That’s a great car rental alternative to consider.

    @ Robin – I think counting whales sounds like fun too. When I’ve been in Hawaii during whale season, I found that whale watching became very addictive and mesmerizing. I hope your friend got to see whales. It’s pretty amazing.
