"Nu'uanu Pali Lookout. It's the closest."

"Let me see that packet," Raven says.

You hand it over and she reads the small description of the lookout.

"At the Pali Lookout," she says, "an apparition in white has been seen at night. We have to wait until tonight."

"That's fine," you say. "We can spend the day in Kaneohe and the local area."

"In that case, should we bring anything else with us?" Raven asks.

"Let's get our sunglasses, swim wear and sandals, just in case. May we borrow this map?"

"Of course," the woman says. "You can even keep it. We have plenty."

"Thank you," you say as you fold up the map.

You and Raven return upstairs, put your sunglasses, swimsuits and sandals in your knapsack and then return to the lobby. You go across the way to the parking lot and to Shadowfax. Helmets on, you pull out onto the street.

"Do you know the way?" Raven asks.

"Yes...? I remember getting onto a highway headed Northeast."

Raven takes out the map and unfolds it to show just the area you're heading for.

"The streets are a bit small on this," she says, "I can't tell what street we need to go on."

"Hold on," you say as you take out your phone. "While the Magi-Phone is not a smartphone, it is still a magic phone."

"I'd imagine so," she says as you take the map. "It does have the word 'magi' in its name, after all."

"What I mean," you say, "is that it has tricks of its own."

You use your phone's camera function and zoom in on your location at the resort. As you do, the details are filled in.

"Wait, I thought you said you could do maps on your phone," she says.

"No, I said I couldn't do google, as in the internet," you say. "Maps have been around a lot longer, so the Magi-Phone was made so it could fill in the gaps like this."

"Wow..." she says.

You look at the street names on the zoomed-in image.

"Okay, so... We'll turn left onto Liliuokalani, then right onto Kuhio, left at Kapahulu, right on Castle, North on 6th. That will get us onto interstate H1 going West, and then we'll just split off at Highway 61. Simple enough."

You put the map away, follow the instructions, and though traffic in the city is a bit thick, you make good time to the interstate. You ride and reach HI-61 and head Northeast. The city drops away quickly, and now it is all mountains and valleys, with the accompanying rivers and streams.

"Lovely, isn't it?" you ask Raven.

"Yeah," she says as you pass by groves of trees.

You drive a bit more, barely passing any other cars or vehicles. A nice peaceful drive.

"Is that the lookout?" Raven asks as she points up ahead.

You look and see an elevated viewing deck near a cliffside.

"Looks like it," you say.

You see a parking lot before the lookout, and a trail leading up to the deck. You also realize the turn off for that was a few meters ago. You'll have an easier time coming from Kaneohe. A tunnel approaches, you and Raven are bathed in orange light as you enter.

"Okay, Mr. Encyclopedia," Raven teases. "What is the reason for tunnels having these orange lights in them?"

"I believe it has something to do with being a nice middle ground for the eyes," you say. "Not to bright at night, not too dim in the day."

"Makes sense," she shrugs.

You exit out the other side, go through wide curves, and find Castle Junction up ahead.
