HONOLULU, HAWAII – ‘FUN IN THE SUN’ ESCAPE
Honolulu, on Hawaii’s beautiful island of Oahu, is the area’s economic center, and Honolulu is perhaps best known for its glorious Waikiki beach area. Filled with bright city lights, Honolulu contains many major shopping areas, five-star restaurants and wonderful views of the Pacific Ocean, and also the nearby Punchbowl and Diamond Head volcanoes, which are now extinct. Honolulu is a tropical paradise, filled with palm trees, numerous white sandy beaches, interesting suburbs and clear waters, suitable for swimming, snorkeling and surfing. All of this can be experienced on your stay with First Supply. Wk 1: Jan. 18-24 (Minneapolis) & Wk 2: Jan 24-30 (Milwaukee).
