Actualy, my dream is to visit Hawaii sometime in my life.
When I was a little girl, I loved the song "Aloha Oe" composed by Queen Liliuokalani.

(15,445 posts)Unfortunately, my finances won't permit a trip to Hawaii for the foreseeable future!
I live in France, so just the air fare would be prohibitive--half a world away.
But, if and when I come into money, the Aloha State will be one of my first destinations!

Toute a l'heure!
