Your Free Hawaiian Vacation

A  L  O  H  A !

The holidays

are stressful.

You

deserve a vacation,

and I'm going

to give it

to you!

You are going to have

 a private view 

of Hawaii's 

warm,

tropical

paradise!

And while you enjoy your view

of palm trees moving

in languid Trade Winds

beside a blue ocean,

You

will listen

to a play-list 

of Hawaiian Music

I have chosen

just for you!

I N S T R U C T I O N S :

1)  Go to and bookmark each of these sites:


Hawaii Music  Here 

Hawaii View  Here.


2) To vacation ANYTIME :

A] Open the Music in one tab and set it playing.

B] Open the View in a new tab.

(You will see the view, the music should keep playing )

C] Watch the Hawaiian view, while you listen to Hawaiian music.  Try Full-Screen!

D] Soon, you will look forward to these little escapes, and actually believe on a certain level that you can sit by your Hawaiian window ANYTIME you want! 

BONUS: If you live in New York City, and arrive home in the winter dark at 6pm, it will STILL be a sunny 1pm when you get here to Hawaii.

I'll look for you!

You Win

A   L   O   H   A  !

 " I've been thinking 

about why you have to
 get famous 
to get an award
 for helping 
other people.

" If your name is 
John Doe, 
and you work night
 and day doing things
 for your helpless neighbors,
 what you get for your effort
 is tired. 

" So, Mr. and Mrs. Doe, 
and all of you
 who give of yourselves,
 to those who carry
 too big a burden
 to make it
 on their own,

" I want you to reach out
 and take your share of this. 
Because if I have earned it, 
so too have you.” 

Frank Sinatra
Accepting the Jean Hersholt Humanitarian Award
