1. what about the interisland travel? is ferry best, or plane, or both?
My preference would be by plane and I've seen some last minute deals on Hawaiian airlines that offers travelers dirt cheap rates just to fill the aircraft.

2. We love nature, scenery, flowers, and forest.......but we can't hike many miles.
Hubby has bad hip....my neck is bad. Just had surgery and headed for another.
Any suggestions?
I would suggest the Kuloa Point Trail, it's only about a half a mile. If you're looking for a bit longer, then the Wai'anapanapa Coastal Trail, but it's a bit rugged...read more about it here.

3. What about driving? Which islands would you DRIVE on and which would you take a TOUR of?
I would drive Maui and Oahu. Tours...depends what kind of tour your looking for. Each island has great tours. What kinds of tours do you prefer, scenic or exciting?

4. Which island is not worth visiting if you can see everything on other islands?
Hm. If you want to do the more tourist type of things then don't miss Oahu. However, if you want to see some of the volcanoes then you can't miss the Big Island.

5. Where do you visit pineapple growers and purchase some to bring home? Macadamia nuts?
If you're on Oahu there's the Dole plantation that you can visit to get the Pineapples. As far as Macadamia nuts, I'm pretty sure you can find those on any island.

6. What is weather like in November?
Well on average you'll probably get something around high 60s to low 80s. On some years it can be the beginning of the rainy season but just keep your eye out on the forecast.
