Pearl Harbor: OVER THE USS ARIZONA
  • Tip Rating:
  • Pearl Harbor is a must visit, to see the museum and movie about war and the tragedy of one day. After the somber movie, about December 7, 1941, you take a brief shuttleboat ride out to the memorial that covers part of the USS Arizona. This site is one memorial of many throughout the world, dedicated to the fallen. Below the cold stone floor lies the tomb of 1,102 members of the crew. Yes, many die in war, and this precious crew is a reminder of the sadness and cruelty of it all.

    Pearl Harbor: SILENT GUARDIANS
  • Tip Rating:
  • Wow. Now anyone can board the Battleship USS Missouri. What a huge ship it is, the "Mighty Mo", with her large 16" guns standing guard.
    Seeing the inside of a battleship is like visiting a miniature city, with all of the areas of the ship being a smaller version of their land counterparts. Not much room for sleeping, and look out for the low ceiling or the narrow hallways (corridors). The main attraction of the ship is standing on the actual spot where the war ended between the USA and Japan, with the signing of surrender by the Japanese. Obviously moving to those that remember, hopefully moving to future generations.

    Hanauma Bay: SNORKELING NEWCOMERS BEACH
  • Tip Rating:
  • This must see for the first timer snorkeling trip is Hanauma Bay. The parking lot fills up fast, so get there early to make sure you can enjoy the entire day at the bay. The beach has all the facilities you will need, with restrooms, showers, food shack , and snorkeling equipment rental area. The fish are colorful, plentiful, and friendly. The variety is amazing, and even as an oldtimer when it comes to snorkeling, still one of the best areas to snorkle for any level. See the fish on my travelogue on Hanauma Bay.

     Will be here next fall and hope to try the shaved ice. The Sheraton sounds like it is close to our hotel and the place to be at sunset. Thanks for all your great tips for we travelers.

     Argueably, this state has THE most beautiful oceanwater on the planet. Clear as crystal. Every blue in the spectrum, and then some. ;-)) And I love that "honest" answer re: daily expenses. I wish more would be so straightforward when it's warrented.
