HONOLULU - Most people travel by airplane to get to Hawaii. But once on the relatively small islands, it is up to the individual to find the best mode of transportation for getting to the sights of Hawaii.
By boat, scooter and foot, Kansas athletes ventured around the island of Oahu to beaches, shops and historical sites.
One site that all the Kansas athletes visited was Pearl Harbor.

A special passenger boat transported dayhawks and tourists to the Arizona Memorial. The white monument stands over the sunken U.S.S. Arizona and just off the shore of Ford Island, which sits in the middle of the harbor. Some of the players' activities were hampered by rainy weather. The 12th month of the year is one of the rainiest in Oahu. Even the boats to the memorial were not running because it was raining so hard one day in late December.
Senior guard Rex Walters and sophomore guard Greg Gurley rented scooters, Richey said. Junior football kicker Dan Eichloth also rented a scooter on the islands. Generally, the scooters ranged in price from $15 to $25 dollars a day.
"We went snorkeling one day," he said "A couple of us got nosed."

For some of Kansas' football players, the best part of being in Hawaii was being with friends and family.
The two defensive linemen helped Kansas improve from a losing program to a winning one. Just two seasons ago, in Moore's first campaign with Kansas, the Jayhawks were 3-7-1. This year Kansas' football team returned from Hawaii with an 8-4 record and the school's second-ever bowl victory.
The basketball team journeyed into the 'championship game of the Rainbow Classic with victories against Jackson State and Hawaii. Michigan proved too tough in the final, beating the Jawhaws 86-74.
But Richey said the team was able to make the best of the conditions.
