GREATEST VACATION (CON'T) We took the 26 minute flight on Hawaiian Airlines from tlt& island oi Maui to the island of Oahu on Sunday afternoon Oct. 24. We stayed in the resort area at the Halekulani garden cottage on the beach at Waikiki. After getting settled in with our luggage once again we freshened up and went out to eat and take in some of the sights wihin walking distance of our "home away from home". Downtown Waikiki consists largely of shop after shop and little stands all selling jewelry made of shells, seeds and coral and brightly colored shirts and dresses. On Tuesday Bud and I went on a cruise to Pearl Harbor while Marie and Charlie went to a luncheon and a live show in the hotel diningroom. They had gone on the Pearl Harbor Cruise on a couple of other trips to Hawaii. During this cruise I realized I had forgotten in the span of time from December of 1941 to 1976, a lot of what had happened on the morning of the surprise attack of Pearl Harbor. All during the cruise the Captain is explaining all the events of the attack and all that followed; the memorials for all the ships that had been lost that morning were pointed out to us as we traveled past the ships' locations. It was a sad and depressing trip, but I am very happy to have gone on it and I would recommend any reader to take that cruise if they go to the island of Oahu. The next day we spent just sitting around in and out of the sun taking in all the sights on the beaches, such as bathing beauties (some quite va-voom and others not so but sun bathing none the less), sail boats, catamarans, water skiers, and surfers, during which we enjoyed Mai-tais and Chi-Chis (ummm-delicious). On Thursday the four of us went on the Polynesian Cultural Tour. The purpose of the Polynesian Cultural Center is a non-profit educational and cultural activity of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints (Mormon), created to portray the arts and crafts of Polynesia and to provide jobs and scholarships for Polynesian students attending Brigham Young University- Hawaii Campus. They represent Hawaii, Tonga, Samoa, Maori, Fiji and Tahiti. The grounds are set up so as to represent each of these places so you can get a vague idea how they live on those islands, including their mode of dress and their dances. The tour is appropriately called "Invitation To Paradise." Friday evening was an ex­ perience the four of us will long remember and talk of and laugh about, as that was the night we went to the Don Ho Show. Marie and I along with about one or two dozen other grandmothers were invited on stage as Don Ho honors all grandmothers at all his shows. That was really an exciting and a long to be remembered time when I recall receiving a lei from Don Ho himself. On Saturday evening we went to the Hawaiian Hut for dinner and a stage show, which was enjoyable and thrilling to see, especially when they reach the audience participation portion of the program. Charlie was one of the ones put through the paces of trying to do the hula. A very fun thing to watch. Sunday evening we spent quietly. Following dinner, we went back to the hotel area to have a drink and watch the outdoor entertainment of music, songs and dances. There too they had audience par­ ticipation. Among those called upon were Charlie and Bud. After Charlie left the stage, I went back to our cottage for more film and while I was gone a very short time, Bud was called on to do his bit with one of the beautiful Hawaiian dancers, by the time I returned he had already been presented with a beautiful flower, the award given for taking part in the fun. Monday was spent rather quietly, mainly window shopping and also doing a little purchasing of things to bring back for the family members not as fortunate as Marie, Charlie, Bud and I, in not being able to go there themselves. Monday night found us packing up for our long flight home on Tuesday evening. Our plane took off at about 6:30 p.m. Hawaiian time and we flew non-stop to O'Hare field and landed at 6:30 a.m. our time here: and so ended our 1976 vacation. TIL NEXT TIME Extra Caution Needed TT ... , 0 . For Thanksgiving Trips tTiWlVg-jl ll Holiday Value bale Thanksgiving trips, slippery highways and poor visibility add up to a triple threat to v motorists, according to Captain James Murphy of the Illinois state police. "It is unfortunate - often tragic - that our first winter storms in Illinois often hit during the long Thanksgiving holiday, when neither cars nor drivers are prepared." He urged motorists to get their cars ready for winter driving as a first step before planning a Thanksgiving trip. "Half the battle is won when your car is in first class mechanical condition, especially those items that directly affect traction and visibility, such as brakes, tires, lights, defroster and windshield wipers. When pavements are slip­ pery, good tires with good treads are a must. Snow tires are helpful for pulling through snow, but studded snow tires are prohibited on all Illinois roads for all types of vehicles. For severe snow and ice con­ ditions, however, reinforced tire chains are legal and far more effective. Carry them in the trunk in case deep snow or glare ice are encountered. To be prepared for the other added hazards associated with winter diving -- poor visibility - - Murphy urged drivers to clear snow and ice from all windows, including the side and rear windows as wen as ihe wiuu- shield.\"Good visibility to the side and rear is also essential in today's heavy traffic," he said. "Replace streaking windshield wipers and be sure the wind­ shield jyashers ha^te an adequaj£supply of antitareprfe solution^' ; Finally, he urged motorists to get themselves ready before an out-of-town Thanksgiving trip. "Get plenty of rest, schedule your trip sensibly so_that__you don't have to drive until exhausted, plan to take a break or change drivers every couple of hours, and check the weather and road reports. "Most of all," Murphy concluded, "use your common sense. If a severe winter storm is in progress, postpone or cancel your trip. You might avoid serious inconvenience or a tragedy." 3 DAYS ONLY Ends Sat., Nov. 27th Gift buys galore! Savings, specials, a few every­ day low prices. Be sure to bring your gift list.
