Fanning (FF 1076) - Naval Cruise Book

HAWAII A weekend stay at Pearl, known as the Gathering Place where high risers and busy streets that some of us thought only existed in places such as California. We won ' t forget the everlasting mountains with ridges that touched the clouds, and the wa- terfalls that led into the Seven Pools of Wonder, and much, much more. It was too short to stay to say Aloha and too ex- pensive to wait for the next pay day to roll around. We won ' t for- get the solemn cruise around Ford Island as we departed Pearl Harbor, remembering why we came, before steaming out for more adventures like the men before us did. 19

ALOHA HA WAII ALOHA Pulling in on a warm evening, FANNING land-lubbers sighted the city lights of Hawaii off the shores of Makapuu. Our eager- ness to visit the island for the weekend after spending nearly a week at sea was hard to con- trol. We won ' t forget Hawaii with its many cultures and life- styles or the experiences we had, or the beaches such as Hanauma Bay, where snorkling was a must, the North Shore and golden sands of Waikiki, where we got our Hawaiian tan. The Ala Moana Shopping Center with over 100 stores and res- tuarants, the International Mar- ket Place in the heart of Wai- kiki. 18
