English term or phrase: Vacation Time
Hello My friend!
I have just arrived in Hawaii safely and on time! I am very excited to be here. I have many interesting and fun plans to do. This post card is going to be brief only because I am soon leaving to take a tour of the island. Hopefully, I will get to see many volcanoes and tropical creatures. Do not worry...I will take many pictures! I will see you soon once I get back to Phoenix.

Vacaciones/
Explanation:
I would just say "vacaciones" or maybe "período de vacaciones, días de vacaciones".
Hope it helps.

Vacaciones


Explanation:
It could be also translated as "Período vacacional," but bearing in mind the context, I think that just "Vacaciones" is the best translation.
