Lei garlands made from flowers or shells are given in Hawaii to mark greetings, birthdays and graduations. Spam, rice and macaroni salad appear widely in Hawaiian home cooking and lunch plates, which is worth knowing when packing food for a stay. Since no road or regular ferry links the Hawaiian islands, travel between them is by air.
