Woke up to see the 40 MPH winds have died down, I know, I know at least its warm but 40 MPH is a pain in the butt. I would not call the Big Island pretty, I mean Kauai is 10 times more tropical. The Big Island is kind of a ranch island. Its cool looking but not what you would think of when you think Hawaii. On my drive today I stopped at one of the Black Sand Beaches. I almost passed it by, who wants to see a beach of black sand? Glad I stopped, it is one of the coolest things I have seen so far on this trip. Seals, Sea Turtles and Ne Ne (Indangered Hawaiian Goose) call the black sands home. ( I did not see any of them ) Talk about hot, the beach is cooking! You could fry a Scottish boy pretty fast. I'm sitting in the comunity center of the resort complex, its the only place I can get on the net. (only draw back to this Condo) Drinking a few Long Boards and updating the blog before I cook some dinner. **** Tomorrow is Volcano National Park !! ****
Yeah, it is kind of black or green, depending which side you are on. You are going to love the volcano, long drive but worth it. Keep the sun tan lotion close, it gets hot up there too. Get yourself some Bull Frog, expensive sun block, but worth it. Aloha!
