It was a chilly 26 degrees this morning in Washington, D.C, and here we are in the Fox 5 Morning News studio with Meteorologist Tony Perkins who interviewed Camile Velasco, Marriott's Spirit of Aloha Tour Ambassador of Aloha and American Idol Season Three Finalist, and City of Honolulu Mayor Mufi Hannemann. Together, they chatted about Hawaii as a value destination and that there's no better time to come to the islands than right now!

From DC to an Oahu Hotel

Don't blame the weather man for poor weather conditions. When it's blowing ice and wind, send him to an ocean resort hotel in Waikiki. On a chilly 26 degree Washington D.C. Morning, the Marriott's Spirit of Aloha visited Fox 5 Morning News studio to pay meteorologist Tony Perkins during his interview with Camile Velasco, a finalist on American Idol. The two discussed hotels on the big island of Hawaii as a vacation destination. After a hula dance with the Polynesian Cultural entertainers, you could tell Perkins was ready to check himself into an Oahu hotel. It doesn't take a weatherman to predict a cold winter. Maui hotel resorts are a great way to escape it all.
