Kauai

Aloha, everyone! I'm currently in Kauai, about to leave for L.A. The big thing was that me and my dad went on a 4-hour sunset cruise along the Na Pali coast. It was really fun! I'll post the pictures from the cruise/Big Island and write more about the cruise from L.A. Aloha for now!

Big Island


Aloha, everyone. Today we're heading over to another island. Big Island's been great! Our hotel is so big, it has its own monorail and boat systems! It also has a lot of pools, with bridges and water slides! I went on the water slide 4 times, (my first time on a water slide!), before we had to leave. It had a small sand pool area. The only other thing we did, is go to the Hawai'i Volcanoes National Park. A 3-hour drive each way. I set up my mom's phone to work as a NAVI system. When we got there, we saw a lot of lava. I collected some rock samples and a seed pod from the dried lava. They had a ranger station with two bathrooms (holes in the ground). There was markings that went over the lava as pathways. We got to see fresh lava melting into the water. Aloha for now!

Aloha!

Aloha, everyone! Sorry I didn't post when we got here. I'm currently in Maui, getting ready to leave for Big Island. So far, it's been really fun here. We did 4 main things.
  1. We went on a semi-submersible called The Reefdancer.
  2. We went on a helicopter ride.
  3. We saw Drums of the Pacific.
  4. We saw Tour of the Stars.
My favorites were The Reefdancer and the helicopter ride. When we were boarding the helicopter, the book I was reading flew out of my hand from the wind from the rotors. Drums of the Pacific was a luau show that we went to. Tour of the Stars is when we went up to the roof of the Hyatt we were staying to look through telescopes. I found the Hubble, but the astronomer said that it was something different, but he realized that it was the Hubble. We got candy and a star chart.

I also got a lot of stuff. A painting, leis, starfish, shells, cloth, and more! Aloha for now!

P.S. I will be posting the time in Hawaii Standard Time. (6 hours behind EST.)
