BCPS HS Bands to Pearl Harbor 20...?
Top 10 things you should know about Oahu...
#10 Some of the most spectacular
scenery on the planet !
Mountains and beaches within yards of eachother !
#9 Honolulu has the 2nd WORST
traffic in the US.
Plan to walk and use the trolley.
#8 The record low temperature for
Oahu is 52 degrees.
During our trip, it will be in the 70's and 80's the entire time.
#7 Aloha means "Hello" and
"Goodbye"
#2 Waikiki is safe; family and
child-friendly.
Huge Police presence in Waikiki with 2 uniform officers on foot per block plus Police cars, motorcycles, bikes, and horses.
#1 All beaches in Hawaii are
100% PUBLIC !
That's right. Donald Trump offered Hawaii $1,000,000,000.00 for 175' of beach and they turned him down !
#6 Mahalo means "Thank you !"
#5 Shaka
Hawaiians use the shaka to convey the "Aloha Spirit", a concept of friendship and understanding,
and may be referred to as "hang loose" or "hang ten"- both associated with surfer culture.
#4 Oahu is 30 miles verticle and 44
miles across.
... and we'll be seeing most of it while you are there.
#3 Waikiki is expensive.
Plan to buy what you want but don't use your food money !!!
