This is the second in the Islands of Aloha Series. A standard size cache in Scott County Park loaded with Hawaiian-type goodies to start it off. Do not use the coordinates above for this cache - get your clues from the puzzle.
Note: Effective 4/17/2015, You no longer need to write down the coordinate clues from inside the top lid (if any exist). They are no longer used to find Islands of Aloha cache #5.
Print out the crossword puzzle and solve the following clues:

13. Capital city of State of Hawaii.
18. Another flower used in making #17 down.
Down
1. Name of this island.

To find this cache's location, change the last numbers as specified in each, following the procedure below:
Take #14 Down and assign a number value to each letter according to its place in the HAWAIIAN alphabet (A=1,E=2,H=3,etc.). Add the letters together to get the 2-digit number you need for the last 2 North coords of N41 43.0__.
Take #11 Down and assign a number value to each letter according to its place in the HAWAIIAN alphabet (A=1,E=2,H=3,etc.). Add the letters together and multiply by 28 to get the 3-digit number you need for the last 3 West coords of W090 31.___.
For some help, here's the Hawaiian alphabet in order - even knowing this, it still broke my brain doing the numbers! A E H I K L M N O P U W
