The occasional traveller

Hi everybody, it has been such a long time since i came on the blog. Anyway i have a question. I NEED to think of my next big holiday. The shortlist is either Hawaii or Tanzania, What i need are some tips on which to pick. So if any of you have any experience of either or both, please let me know.
