I guess you could say one of the perks of leaving Hawaii (ok so there aren't really any perks) was being able to take a vacation in Waikiki on the military's dime. Leaving Hawaii we were allowed 10 days of what they call TLA which is given after you clear your house but before you leave the island. You don't have to take all 10 days but hey why wouldn't you? We were given a certain amount of money for a hotel a night and we could stay where ever we wanted to but if it was over that amount we had to pay the difference. We were also given a certain amount for food a day. We decided to stay at our favorite hotel in downtown Waikiki - the Hilton Hawaiian Village (a very upscale hotel). Lucky for us they had a military rate that was the same amount of what we were allotted. I have to say it was the best 10 days ever. We enjoyed the pools, the beach (and yes it was right on the beach), and enjoyed all our favorite places in Waikiki such as the zoo and hiking diamond head one last time and a magic show at a nearby hotel. Here are some pictures from our last 10 days.
