Book It - My Second Trip to this great island!

The previous summer I crashed a friend's family vacation (as I did most years) to the Big Island - so since I had already visited this great island I acted as the tour director and recreated my week long vacation into a very small 2 days - touching all the highlights!

We stayed at the Waikoloa Beach Marriott in a cabana - which is really …

5 kilometres deep ocean on ocean

Hi folks,
As stupid as this may sound, I actually don't know how to check you messages on the travelpod site but have been getting them all in my emails anyway so I won't bother using up my time on working it out. (Unless someone can enlighten me). Glad to hear that all is well on the farm Kay and Bruce. Kay and Wayne I got your email thankyou …

Lava Flow @ Night plus Green Sand Beach

Took a quick trip to see the lava flow at night. This lava flow is just east of the national volcano park. The photos aren't very clear due to my camera having a low battery (ya, next time i will be little more prepared and have them charged). Its not visible, but the lava is flowing right into the ocean. That night we camped in the national park. …

Annini Art

Lyn and KT head to the room to shower / relax but Jen/Ash are eager to use their Keen hiking sandals and we take a beach cliff access path downward to Annini Beach which is reknown as a "little kid"/family beach . This is a camping beach state park and there are tents staked out and beginning campfires. The water is indeed very shallow and clear. …

When I went we caught some crabs, stairfish,and even a seahorse!Of course they threw them back though. If you were game enough you could touch or even hold some of them. It was really …

After a leisurely breakfast we went ashore for our next tour to "Hilo Tropical Botanical Gardens" (http://www.htbg.com/). A select group of 8 passengers (not one of the most popular excursions, this one), we …

Hawaii- the Big Island- from Volcano village

Hawaii- the Big Island- from the village of Volcano The huge volcano this end of Hawaii island is Mauna loa, and it's said to be the most massive mountain on earth, rising 56,000 ft from sea floor. I think measuring from the sea floor is cheating, but it's pretty big, regardless. It is however known (at least so far) as a relatively safe to live …

Week 1= Success!

Well the first week of camp was a little stressful, but it went extremely well. We have a great group of campers. We went to the pool on Monday and Wednesday. Tuesday we went to the USS Missouri Memorial. We helped paint and do a restoration project and then got a tour of ship. It was really neat. Thursday we went to the Hawaii Nature Center. The …
