Here are pictures from Hawaii last month--it was beautiful!
The area we stayed in, Waikoloa, was mostly condos and lava. Here's the lava...
And here is Hawaiian "
graffiti." It is white rocks placed against the black rocks.
They actually have to tote the rocks and place them.
Here is a beach with white rocks....seems like an awful lot of work for graffiti to me!

Laupahoehoe Point -- Triggered by an Alaskan earthquake,

On the drive back from Hilo, we could see a rain shower over the water, and a rainbow in it.
I have never seen a sign warning of "Falling Coconuts and Fronds!"
We went on a terrific snorkeling trip on the Fair Wind. What a terrific job the crew did! We had a light breakfast served, snorkeled, saw tons of fish and three dolphins came by, and then the grilled hamburgers and hot dogs for lunch. Nice, nice job these folks did!
