Hawaii gets a new name

Hawaii is so cool, they should change the last two “i”s in “Hawaii” to exclamation points. HAWA!! or Hawa!!

Happening right now on Spudart: Press a leaf in an envelope with the date and story written on it until 2026-10-31

Interesting fact about Hawa!! — There are no bridges connecting the islands. Instead, you have to take a “commuter plane.” They have a superferry, but it only runs between Maui and Oahu. Crazy, huh? I never even thought about how the locals get from island to island until we started planning our vacation. Also, I think the islands are a lot further apart from each other than they appear. Spud: Your idea to replace the i’s with exclamation points is a good one. Hawaii has so much to offer — volcanoes, tropical fish, luaus, waterfalls, beautiful beaches…

Many traditionalists spell Hawaii as Hawai’i with a backward apostrophe.

Or we could go back to calling them the Sandwich Islands.
