Exact dates are not available, but the accomodations are said to be three makai (beachside) multimillion-dollar homes. Lagoon-style pool, palm trees, white sand, and surfers, included.

Way to go President-Elect Obama!  What you’ve been through in the last two years, and what lies ahead after you take office,you deserve a beautiful place to catch your breath.

Some folks might take exception to Obama’s visits to the paradise islands of Hawaii (this will be #3 this year), but for him it’s like returning home, just like Clinton would be returning to Arkansas or Bush to Texas. And, of course, sadly, one of his visits was to see his dying grandmother, Madelyn Dunham, for the last time.

For the uninformed, President-Elect Obama was born at Kapiolani Medical Center for Women & Children in Honolulu, and was a 1979 Punahou School graduate. I’d say he feels right at home in Hawaii. Ain’t it great!

OK, because It’s been a very long time since I’ve posted, you might have forgotten about my two little features that I try to include in each post: "News Flash" and "Fun Facts About Hawaii". So, dang it, here they are.

News Flash: Orbitz has some deals for travel to Hawaii ending 12/31/2008. Hey! It’s not too late!

Fun Facts About Hawaii: South Point of the  Big Island of Hawaii is the most southern point in the United States (sorry Florida). Think about it.
