Julie - we are jealous! Our ombudsman said it was a GREAT time to go as the ships that are in port are on standdown so you will get to enjoy some nice time with your sailor. :-)

Hey Linda - welcome and I will be with you this year; missing our sailor during the holidays and everyday for that matter! Is your son on sea or shore duty there? Our son was home recently for his grandfather's funeral and said the ship is doing a really nice dinner for Thanksgiving and they were going all out. Being a former Navy wife for 10 years, the ship/commands generally always did a nice meal for the crews as they become "family" over time.

Hi I am new to this blog. Need to know about what your single servicemen and women are doing for Thanksgiving? While my son isn't so worried about being with anyone my heart is breaking that he is going to be alone for Thanksgiving and Christmas... and this isn't the first year this is happening. Any suggestions?

Good point Sue. I did talk to him about that but he says what ever. 4 hours would really stink though. I will need to talk to him again. thanks

I lived in Chicago for 18 years - the traffic in HI is crazy. The island is small but it can still take you an forever to go a short distance. Aaron told me about the 7 car pile up on H1 last week. People were 4 hours late for work. I'm glad Aaron drove me around when I was there - I found it confusing. During rush hours they change some of the lanes and you can only go certain ways on some of the roads. I personally would stay closer like the Navy Lodge. I know you don't want to waste a lot of time driving.
Thanks Rhonda - let me know what your son says.

I did look into the Navy Lodge and the condo I found is cheaper. But do I want to stay in the city for some of my time or not? Worth it?

Julie - have you tried the Navy Lodge at Ford Island? They have small kitchettes where you can do some cooking...

Hi to Everyone and Happy Thanksgiving,
We are going to Hawaii Dec 29-Jan 8th. I have read the post on what to see,eat and things to do. I have not yet booked a place. We will have 6 people total. I have been looking at condo's so we can cook. My son looked into the cabins and they were all booked. I know this is a very exp time to go but this was the best time for us to go. I was looking at a condo in Hauula. My son just says the island in small stay anywhere. Any ideas? He thinks he will be able to stay with us most of the time. I look at the map and have no idea. Do I want to stay in the city or not? I live near Chicago so traffic and driving are not a problem just don't want to do that much of it. Really need so help. Thanks

I will ask my son. He had a car broken down but don't know how he got it moved. It may take a few days, he is not at base right now.
Sue Comment by Sue 21 hours ago
