Greetings from Oahu. Finally!! suze

Lucky you - have a great time :wave: :oceansun: ((H))

Me? Envious?

Have a great time!

Mahalo :-)

But this is not a trip report -lol!

Enjoy! Every minute!

I know it’s your happy place. Mine too. But it’s a 10 hour flight plus layovers...

enjoy the warmth/waves/food/beauty/vibe/sand/people/flowers/fauna/flora/beach/ocean/dancing......did I miss anything?

Enjoy!

Have a great time, suze!

Suze, Kongrats with a kapitul K! Please say Hi to Inaka for us all. She's had plans to be there too, over on Maui. Or maybe she and Oprah had another falling out...
Bon Chance
I am done. the pali gap

oh I am jealous. Have a great time.

Another envious one here...

I'm jealous too! I was checking out flights to Hawaii yesterday lol. Have a shave ice for me and enjoy your trip!

Enjoy. Color me jealous!

envy has reared its ugly head, but wishing you a lovely time. Looking forward to photos?

So jealous! Have fun!

Aloha to you too. Enjoy paradise, I'm very happy for you and of course slightly jealous for myself.

My happy place! Are you at Waikiki? Have they freed the penned up tables and benches on the beach? Have a Dole Whip for me.

Enjoy Suze! One of my favourite places on earth. I can smell the plumeria blossoms from here.

I used to go every year to visit grandmother, but haven't been there since Covid hit. So jealous!

ziggy ~ You forgot rain :-) and hula lesson, but the rest is all right too!

Yes Waikiki. But keep it under your hat, can't talk about it or my post will be moved out of the Lounge to the US forum where I have no friends.

Can I watch?

Aloha Suze, hope you enjoy your long awaited visit back. Music icons the Cazimero Brothers did this video, commercial I know, but still great.

Have a wonderful time suze!

Actually we had quite the audience. Where the class happens is at a courtyard performance area at Royal Hawaiian Center so lots of people were watching (restaurants overlooking the space, people walking thru the shopping center). A few taking snaps or video on their phones, so I'm sure my "performance" is out there somewhere -haha.

Have fun! We were on the Big Island this time last year. Wish I was there again this year!

Yes of course I am jealous !! :sun::cool::oceansun:

You can post your Hula Video when you get back !! :palm:

OK, I was curious so double-checked... The article I found said they closed in 2017?

Maguro Spot on Kuhio seems the place to go for poke :-) although it is everywhere lately.

ok now off to a temple and a garden... overcast and drizzly today. aloha.

:-)
in case I go missing... I'm easy to find over on Trip Advisor

Hey that sounds fantastic!

I am happy for you, did you have to mask on the flight?

Hi Joe, Nope. Masks have been optional everywhere... starting at SeaTac, thru HNL, even on public transport. I do keep one in my pocket still, and have used it when I was in super crowded places (like a busy farmer's market or on The Bus if the people who sat next to me were masked).

Is that you on the surfboard?

Found you! Hope you’re still having a blast!
