Five Terrific Values When Traveling to Oahu

The Hawaiian Islands are recognized for their natural splendor, wonderful climate, and friendly people.  It is also known as a really expensive place to reach and exist in.  But in this article I will illustrate five terrific values when traveling to Oahu, and these are not mindless things to do like lying around the seaside (which you can do anyplace there is a beach and nice climate), but activities that you can do only on Oahu.

1.    The first of the terrific values when traveling to Oahu will be the USS Arizona Memorial at Pearl Harbor.  This is at no cost, and free tickets for the program are offered on a first come, first- served basis.  It is really a serious and sobering experience, as you are actually standing over a grave site where 1177 men lost their lives.  The addition in 1999 of the Battleship Missouri, the vessel where the formal signing of the “Instrument of Surrender” on September 2, 1945 ended the Second World War, is really a fitting bookend to the US involvement in the conflict.  Over a million and one half visitors each year tour the site, so it is strongly recommended you get there early to beat the excursion buses.

2.    A drive to Oahu’s North Shore, known as the surfing capital of the world, will simply amount to the cost of a rental car.  All of the beaches in Hawaii are open, so it is possible for you to visit the home to the very best world-class surfers inhabit.  Make sure to stop at the Banzai Pipeline, where surfers make their way through the center of the wave.  This is an easy hour’s drive from Waikiki, and an area that far too many tourists neglect to see.

3.    Another cheap opportunity is a trek up to the top of Diamond Head.  Positioned at the Southeast coast of Oahu and overlooking the Pacific Ocean and Waikiki Beach, this $5 per car ($1 for pedestrians) experience may be done in two hours, and is approximately 1.4 miles in length.  The path is cemented most of the way, and as I remember the top got quite steep.  But the top presents a spectacular 365 degree view of Oahu and is a must-see for photography enthusiasts.

4.    The Dole Plantation is a renovated, operational pineapple plantation that is devoted to the perpetuation of the Hawaiian agricultural heritage.  This costs $8 for adults, $6 for children, and the tour takes guests from the point in time the Dole enterprise was a two-horse ranch to the most important producer and marketer of pineapples in the world.  It also features a two acre, 1.7 miles of paths maze, recognized inside the 1998 Guinness Book of World Records as the largest maze around the world.

5.    The last among the five terrific values when traveling to Oahu would be to top off the day with a two hour Waikiki evening dinner cruise.  There are several to choose from, but can be purchased for as little as $125 per person.  These let you get beautiful views of Waikiki and Diamond Head, along with a one hour picturesque ride up Mount Tantalus to view Honolulu by nighttime for a $22 ad on.

Now that you have five terrific values when traveling to Oahu, you should have an affordable solution to get around.  The Bus will allow you to travel to all or any the favorite buying and beach areas, and they are available frequently.  It is a good service for tourists who do not have autos to get about – it makes getting to places outside the immediate Waikiki district rather accessible.  So enjoy your trip in Hawaii, and know that you won’t have to spend a fortune.

First Winter Swell Hits Oahu’s North Shore

Jack Johnson Tickets – Jack Johnson Tailors Sixth Album, ‘To the Sea,’ to Fans

Jack Johnson released his sixth album, To the Sea, on Tuesday, June 1 and the characteristically mellow musician chatted about his expectations for the record with MTV News. Johnson told MTV News that he won’t even know about the response for To the Sea because he is going off the grid on a camping trip!

“Generally, I’ve been out and about when the records come out … [but] we’re about to leave for two weeks on a little camping trip, [and] that works better for me, a little bit. Get away from it and not think about it too much … Whenever friends’ albums come out, I go out and buy them. But when it’s my own, I don’t want to jinx it,” Johnson revealed.

Back in April, Johnson’s To the Sea scored the No. 1 spot on the iTunes albums chart based only on pre-orders so it is safe to say he can’t jinx the success of his sixth album! As opposed to album sales, Johnson is more concerned with relating to his many fans.

“I guess, with all the albums, I never used to think about it, but now there’s different songs that people will tell me, you know, ‘This song really means a lot to me after I lost a close friend,’ or, ‘This song is what we danced to a at our wedding’,” said Johnson before adding, “So I hope there’s songs on this—as I went through certain things in my life, whether they were heavy or just something fun, and wrote a song about it—hopefully, people can take those songs and they mean something and they can use it in their life.”

Although fans of the folk rocker were ready for him to release the follow-up to 2008’s platinum-selling Sleep Through the Static, Johnson didn’t anticipate releasing an album so soon. USA Today reports that Johnson planned on taking a hiatus from writing and recording in the wake of his father’s death last August after battling cancer. Johnson pays tribute to his late father on To the Sea, while the album also includes four love songs for his wife Kim and one aptly-titled track—”My Little Girl”—which was inspired by the couple’s third child. Fans with <a href=”http://www.stubhub.com/jack-johnson-tickets/”>Jack Johnson tickets</a> from <a href=”http://www.stubhub.com/”>StubHub.com</a> can hear Johnson’s new songs when his tour kicks off July 9.

It wouldn’t be a Jack Johnson album without an aquatic mention here or there, and the former professional surfer told USA Today, “I recently started to understand the significance of growing up surrounded by the ocean. The idea was of a father leading a son to the sea the way my father did. Until this album, I stayed away from any kind of oceanic references after being labeled this beach-boy surfer guy.”

After suffering from an accident at the famed Oahu’s Pipeline Masters when he was 17, Johnson earned a film degree from the University of California-Santa Barbara. He began to focus on a career in music after releasing the 2000 surf documentary Thicker Than Water with friends and professional surfers Emmett and Chris Malloy. Fellow laid-back musician G. Love took Johnson under his wing and the rest is, as they say, history.

Surfing Hawaii- Big Island of Hawaii (Tradewinds Trailer)

Pipeline Surf Wipeouts

Hawaii’s North Shore a Great Winter Destination

When the long winter nights are getting you down and the cold seems to creep into your bones, don’t you just want to get away? Maybe to someplace warm that has beautiful beaches and bathtub warm ocean water? Hawaii is just the spot! While Hawaii is a great place to visit any time of year, the winter months are spectacular.

So what makes Hawaii in winter so great? A little something called the North Shore. Perhaps you have heard of it? In the winter the waves on the North Shore are just phenomenal! Surfers come from all over the world to experience the famous Bonzai Pipeline and other great Surfing spots on the North Shore. It is fascinating to watch the pros work the waves and surf the pipeline. On any given day you can watch dozens and sometimes hundreds of surfers hitting the waves.

But keep in mind, the surfing on the North Shore is not for beginners! The waves can be quite dangerous and there is a coral reef lying just beneath the water. It would be very painful, if not catastrophic to have a wave pound you into the coral.

However, there are places where you can venture into protected waters and snorkel or play. The water in Hawaii is bathtub warm and a beautiful blue. It is so clear you can see the bottom this makes for a perfect water playground!  On the North Shore there are a few little bays that are perfect for these activities. Adjacent to the Turtle Bay Resort there is a public beach and a snorkeling bay. The water is fairly shallow and it is protected from the large waves. It is a good size bay with room for lots of visitors.  Make sure you bring reef shoes, the coral is quite sharp on bare feet!

There aren’t very many hotels to choose from on the North Shore other than the Turtle Bay Resort, but you can find quite a few condos for rent. Check Craig’s List or do a Google search for North Shore Condos. There are many great units for rent right next to the Turtle Bay Resort.  You will save money by going this route and since they include a kitchen you will save on food as well!

While visiting, you need to make sure and stop at one of the many Shrimp Trucks you will see. There are quite a few shrimp farms along the main highway between Laie and Turtle Bay and there are old delivery vans that have been converted to lunch wagons near them. You can get a plate of fresh shrimp cooked in a wide variety of ways. Be adventurous and try something new, although I strongly recommend the garlic butter variety!

A visit to the North Shore of Oahu is very different from the bustling life of Waikiki.  While Waikiki is full of life and excitement, the North Shore is very relaxed and peaceful. However, I would recommend spending a few nights in both places so you can appreciate the difference.

A trip to Hawaii is heaven on earth, and a trip to the North Shore in winter is absolutely stunning! Start planning your trip now, you will never regret it.

AWE Episode 104

Customers Are Available For Everyone, At Any Time

You’re a sales genius. They love you; they trust you; and some of them keep on coming back for more. However, you can very suddenly go from Hero to Zero if you don’t keep your sales figures up to scratch. As a sales genius, you’ll be working hard to have deals lined up for weeks in advance so that you’re not enslaved by what has been referred to as “the Curse of a Sales Job”.

Working month to month, just treading water in the hopes of staying afloat, does not make you a super-sales-hero. You need to plan ahead – take the long-term view and line up those deals to ensure you maintain your status. This is what makes you great – and able to achieve your fullest potential. Again, this is hard work and dedication – but it is fuelled by your passion for selling and your dream to achieve all that you can.

You must realize that customers are available for everyone, at any time and at any age. Not so when it comes to sex, right? No – even with a reputation as a serial womanizer, you can go for weeks or even months at a time without having a beautiful woman to accompany you to social gatherings. That’s the quickest way to dissolve your reputation! But the beauty of sales is that there will always be someone who needs something that you’ve got – you just need to find them and approach the sale in an appropriate way, depending on their needs.

And, with selling, buying leads is also a legitimate way to generate sales – it’s not against the law, either. So when you find that you’re scraping the bottom of the barrel in terms of customers and your pipeline is running dry, you can absolutely purchase a list of leads. However, when your sex life is becoming somewhat dull, or non-existent, paying for a “lead” is not exactly the way you want to go (nor is it legal – in most countries, anyway).

Cruising the internet in search of customers is perfectly acceptable too. You won’t find yourself in any moral or ethical dilemma when paying for leads. And you won’t get fired for typing “selling techniques” into a search engine at work. But wait and see what happens when you’re caught Surfing the net for tips on “how to please…”

With all the technology that we have available to us today, the act of “cold-calling” is just about becoming a thing of the past. You can access so much information about a client before you even get to the first meeting. As a result, you will be better prepared than if you had just picked up the phone and dialed a random number in the hopes of charming yourself into another sale. With as much “pre-knowledge” of the customer as possible, you’re equipped to ask all of the right questions, and you’re able to listen to the client’s needs with a greater understanding.

If you’ve carried out your research thoroughly, half of the work is done. It can no longer be termed a “cold call” when you’re already warming up to the client and the operations of his business. Rather, you have the upper hand as you begin the call, knowing more about your client than he does about you. This means that you’re better prepared to approach him in an effective manner and better prepared to address the type of business that he has and the problems he might be encountering.

And besides, you don’t have to dial a “900” number to sell over the phone. If you want customers from faraway places, it’s not that difficult and not that expensive either. You just pick up the phone, send an e-mail, and use any modern technology that you have on hand. But try finding your dream woman from some faraway exotic place – you’ll pay a fortune in travelling costs and accommodation, and that’s before you’ve even taken her out to dinner.

Yet again we can prove that selling is better than sex – and far less risky too. Finding new customers won’t get you into trouble either. You can have as many customers as you want, and as many as you can handle!

—————–

The secret of being successful in selling is the ability to transmit your energy and your enthusiasm about your product or service. If you fail to do that, you will not sell. If you want to learn how to transfer your energy into sales enthusiasm to improve your career and life, get my book “Selling Is Better Than Sex” today!

This book will provide you with more than 200 reasons why selling is even better than sex, and what you can do about it in order to improve your career and your life. This is not just another sales book – this is a revelation!
