Hawaii 2007

---

The red shading indicates the path I took -- about 1,000 miles in total.
My home base was Kailua, marked by the red star on the left side.






































"Shaka Restaurant" -- the southern-most bar in the United States. Stopped here for lunch of course.


























This is a valley in the rainforest.


A farm of wind generators. The wind is always moving on the island.














Okay, I think I'm going to like it in Hawaii!


























This is hardened, black lava around the volcano at Mount Kilauea.


Steam vents coming through the ground from the hot lava beneath.


More steam vents.












































The northwest side of the island was much like the American West.
Here you can see areas darkened by previous lava flows.















































This fellow stopped by during my dinner one evening to see if I had 15 minutes to spare. . . .
