While there’s still no official word from anyone on exactly when President-elect Barack Obama will be arriving in Hawaii for his holiday vacation, some details appear to be surfacing.

In a report on his latest cabinet appointments, Reuters notes Obama is scheduled to leave the mainland Saturday.

And in a blog post focusing mainly on Illinois’ Gov. Rod Blagojevich, the Los Angeles Times drops a line that Obama’s upcoming vacation will last 10 days.

The only detail Obama officials will confirm is that the newly-christened Time magazine Person of the Year has no public appearances scheduled during his time in the islands.

Obama also is expected to attend a service in honor of his late grandmother, Madelyn Dunham, who died two days before Election Day.
