Out of Housing

We are now homeless! Well, not really, and definetly in a good way!



We are out of housing and into TLA a the Outrigger Reef Hotel in Waikiki - http://www.outriggerreef.com/ VERY nice hotel - newly renovated all new rooms/fixtures ect. Slept like a baby last night. The nice part is it is 3 hotels away from the Hale Koa (military hotel ) http://www.halekoa.com/ that has a PX - I walked over there this am to pick up a quart of milk for $1.35 - they sell the same milk at this hotel shop for $3.15 - we are also parking our car at the Hale Koa for $8/day v. $24/day here at the Outrigger, just go to the HaleKoa parking garage and ask for a parking pass. Having a military ID card has its benefits!If anyone has questions about getting TLA and non-avail status let me know.

Checking out of housing was not at bad as I thought it would be. I was worried about the carpet (it is at least 7 1/2 years old), but I shampooed it as requested, but it still looked worn out in certain high traffic spots. The inspectors said it was fine and did not charge - as far as cleaning goes, only had to wipe out the cabinets, sweep the floors and vacuum the carpets - stove and fridge had to be clean - and the blinds and ceiling fans needed to be wiped down - the rest was just wipe down clean - much much easier than previous check out requirements.
