An evening at the Volcano (Video Added!)

Here are some pictures from our visit to the Volcano viewing area. The all black pic with little colored dots is the line of people with their flashlights headed away from the viewing area after dark.

A day at Volcano National Park

We spent the first part of the day in the National Park. The first three pictures below are from our trip through the Thurston Lava Tube, including 384 meters of light only from flashlights. The rest of the photos are from around the park, including Tonia’s favorite, the Sea Arch.

I was going to add these to Tonia’s post, but there were so many I just made a new gallery. Look carefully in the second picutre of lava entering the ocean to see some stupid people way too close. At the top of the third of those pictures, between the green areas, is where we went to watch the lava on Monday evening. Pictures and movies of that later.

You know you’re in Hawaii when …

I could say something like “you fly over an active volcano in a helicopter”, but I think “you’re in Wal-Mart and they have a fine selection of graphite fishing spears” says it just a bit better 🙂
