Oh yay, I get to melt...Awesome.

I'm getting stationed in Hawaii. No not at Pearl Harbor (I've been asked that question several times), but at Kaneohe Bay. I leave for Hawaii March 17 after being sent home to Minnesota for free leave. They seem to consider Hawaii overseas, not that I can really complain about that. Anyway, I suppose the main point of this is to find out what anyone who has been to Hawaii has to say about it. I know it is expensive to live there, which is why I'm glad I'll be on base.
I'm 20 minutes from Honolulu, so I'm sure that'll get boring pretty quick. And only one person I know from school here will be going with me.

Anyway, so Hawaii, is it awesome, is it not. Tell me please.

That sounds exotic and adventurous. I've never been there, but I want to go. Take me with you in your suitcase. I'm sure you'll like it, though :( Pictures of you in a grass skirt please.

Maui is hands down the nicest place on Earth that I've ever been, although my travel experience is certainly limited. I want to go back very, very much. Consider yourself lucky to be there for an extended period of time.

Tough life, heh ? Guess the military is really enslaving you ;)

Enjoy the sun and scenery!!

I didn't really enjoy hawaii. There were way too many tourists about. The weather was nice and there were interesting things to see, but the people just ruined it.

Not as good as Greece...but i guess i'll give it a thumbs up.

Lucky!! I've never been there, but it's FREEZING in my house, so anywhere tropical really apeals right now!!

I always thought Hawaii was another American state. It's a little seperate Island isnt it? or something?

I have never been to Hawaii but always wanted to go there XD

"Wah wah wah, I'm cold" "Wah wah wah, I'm hot"

Don't be such a wuss. :P

during the off hours scramble out to the lost set

It is indeed a state, and it's a cluster of volcanic islands like two thousand miles from nowhere, in the middle of the Pacific. Hawai'i can also be pronounced "tropical island paradise".

More like "tropical island hell" thank you very much. ;_;

Well where the hell do you want to be stationed?

Antarctica.

Hawaii isn't even that hot. It's tropical, but has nice cool breezes, or so I've heard. I don't think it gets much hotter than 80 degrees there.

Just feel lucky that you're not stationed in Hong Kong. Humidity there can reach 100% :eek:

Have fun! :D
