Be Like Barack Vacation Tours
Now that Barack Obama has left the Aloha State, how about starting up some vacation packages modeled after Barack’s stay? If I were a local tour guide, I’d do something like this…
Day 1. Pick up visitors from the airport then cart them off to Keehi Lagoon Beach Park. Allow visitors to make impromptu speeches and record as video podcasts. Give to visitors as a remembrance of their Be Like Barack trip.
Day 2. Wake up the guests early and drag them to Kailua beach. After lunch, head over to Olomana for a round of golf. Finish off the day by filling up Alan Wong’s for dinner. I’d highly recommend the li hing tomato cucumber salad.
Day 3. Get temporary membership to 24 Hour Fitness for a morning workout then afterwards drive around the island going through the Waiahole valley along with a make shift caravan simulating a secret service escort.
Day 4. Go be like everyone else and watch an overpriced movie in the Ward area. Then take the guests down the street to Ala Moana for dinner at Mariposa in Neiman Marcus.
Day 5. Head to the hardcourt for some pickup hoops. Hmmm, maybe not at Punahou though. Get burgers and fries from Kua ‘Aina at Ward then have a group picnic at Magic Island. Make sure everyone cleans up and picks up their trash. Later that night, have a swanky dinner at The Kahala Resort.
Day 6. Golf a challenging round at Luana Hills, visit Punchbowl, then delight in shave ice (but not from Island Snow, probably Tat’s).
Day 7. Swim with the fish at Hanauma. Give all visitors Macy’s shopping bags to hold their beach stuff. Stop by the blowhole before bodysurfing at Sandy’s. In the afternoon, visit the Arizona Memorial.
Day 8. Vacation package is done. Get some tall local guys to send off visitors at the airport.
Not a bad vacation package, no?
