Remember that incredible rain-forest waterfall in "Jurassic Park?" Don't search for it in the movie's fictional location off Costa Rica. It's on Kauai Island, the self-styled "garden isle," State of Hawaii.
Travelers in search of war-torn Central African villages infested by twin plagues of the Ebola virus and Dustin I'm-exactly-the-same-in-all- my-movies-Hoffman should also rethink their Congo bookings. The movie "Outbreak's" version of Africa was also filmed on Kauai.
Indeed Kauai appears time and again on TV and silver screens, both ancient and modern.
