Most newcomers to the islands are welcomed with a lei and aloha kiss. That wasn't the case for Liana Bullock and her husband Jason. They got a trip for two to Fiji.

The couple won the grand prize in our Fiji Flyaway promotion. Their names were drawn from over 800 entries submitted in our stores and online at TCSurf.com. Eight-hundred to one - pretty good odds by gambling standards. But that's not what Liana was thinking when she filled out an entry form at our Pearlridge store.

"I had just stopped by the store to see what's new, and figured 'what the heck, I never win but it can't hurt to try.'"

A few weeks later, she got a call that made a dream come true. She and her husband, an Army soldier stationed at Schofield, are new to the islands but have already fallen in love with snorkeling. They've been dreaming about exploring Fiji's reefs, so the timing couldn't have been better.

Congratulations to Liana and Jason! And a huge mahalo to Business and Leisure Holidays - Hawaii's premier resource for South Pacific Travel - for hooking up the Bullocks with an unforgettable vacation.

Thanks also to Plantation Island Resort, Air Pacific and the Fiji Visitors Bureau for their support.

Stay tuned guys and gals, and keep signing up for our giveaway! The next lucky winner could be you!

Until next time, see you in the water!

Aloha!
