Aloha

When I was a little girl, I used to watch this TV series called Hawaii Five-O. I'm not really sure how young I was back then but I was intrigued by the intro of the show. I can't really recall it all too clearly now but I can still remember bits and pieces of it and I was fascinated by the images of Hawaii during the intro. The pictures of beautiful Hawaiian girls shaking their hips in those stray skirts, the huge waves with people surfing on it, the beautiful island paradise setting and of course not forgetting Steve McGarrett on the roof of a building doing his famous fringe flip :D

Ever since then I've always dreamed of going to Hawaii, well, I've dreamed of going to a lot of other places too but Hawaii is definitely on the top of my list. Imagine lazing by the beach in a hammock between some nice palm trees with the sun shimmering through the leaves and the sounds of the ocean as a backdrop while you sip your island paradise cocktail or whatever it's called. Doesn't that just make you want to grab your bags and head out to the airport and get on a plane to Hawaii right this very minute? Well it does for me!


But for the life of me, I wouldn't know how to find a good spot in Hawaii for a vacation. I've heard, Oahu, the third largest of the Hawaiian Islands is a good place. I guess I could always look up on the internet for some Oahu vacation rentals or maybe I can even check out the Hawaii Travel Blog. I'm sure I'd get some great tips about where to stay in Oahu. After all I want my holiday to be a perfect and memorable one now wouldn't I? And as for looking for exciting activities to partake in I could always head on down to the Oahu Vacation Information website that's loaded with a host of useful information and see what Oahu has to offer to make my holiday all the more fun :D

Now comes the reality of things. Where in heavens name am I going to find that much money to plan a vacation to Hawaii? I'd probably have to work 3 jobs just to save enough for the plane ticket let alone the cost of the vacation. Maybe I'll put up a new Donate to my Hawaiian Vacation fund button on my blog! Any takers? ... Hehehe!

  1. Hawaii Five-O was one of my favourite shows and who could forget the fringe flip ... LOL!

    I like the hammock under the palm tree idea though I might just slip off that hammock seeing as how my body size getting bigger and bigger ... LOL!

    But seriously, Hawaii sounds like a mighty fine idea for a vacation.
