Hawaii this weekend

Anything going on this weekend on Oahu? My ship pulls in Friday and leaves Tuesday. Any HAMB friendly things to check out?

 

anyone? try: gohawaii.com

 

Arizona Memorial and Hotel Street (watch your wallet and the "girls").

 

Now why would you not watch the girls?

 

I went to a big flea market type thing in the football stadium, it was kinda cool. Not as cool/hot as Hotel street though..ha ha

 

It's "girls" as in hookers and because on Hotel Street, a lot of the "girls" are guys.

 

Holy shit. Always a spoiler.

 

I don't know about HAMB friendly , but the Pipeline Masters surf contest is going on at the north shore . Top surfers in the world .

 

If you haven't already done so, make the time to see the Arizona Memorial up close. We tied up in distant sight of it in '67 on the way over and '68 on the way back. Figured just the sight would be enough but wasn't, have always regretted since not going to see it up close and spend some time reflecting. Very emotional port for me knowing Dad had stopped on his way over in '44 on LSM 241.

Sounds like Hotel St business is still thriving, maybe with a few more "changes" than back in the day........

Ed EN in B-2 on W381 back then

 

Have been to the Arizona memorial several times. Very humbling.

 

The USS Missouri is worth a visit also.
