It seems strange that not so long ago, this photo of Halema‘uma‘u taken from the visitor center at Hawaii Volcanos National Park was the way it had looked for a very long time. Now, the view at Kilauea summit is very different. This photo comes from the National Park Service website. And just so you know, […]

Isn’t this a cool place? If you’ve ever been to Hawaii Volcanos National Park, you’ve probably been through the Thurston Lava Tube. It’s a major tourist attraction for good reason. Access isn’t bad and it’s an awe-inspiring place.

Liliuokalani Gardens in Hilo are a must-see. It’s what I was told by a friend several years ago, and a mantra I’ve repeated since the first time we stopped there. There are so many things to see at the gardens. It pays to plan on slowing down your pace to view everything from the Liluokalani […]

Liliuokalani Gardens offer time to reflect I fell in love with Liliuokalani Gardens the first time I saw it. It makes perfect sense that it’s ranked as #5 of eighty-five things to do in Hilo. With almost twenty-five acres of gardens, there are walking paths, lagoons, and spots to sit while you contemplate the fabulous […]

Big Island waterfalls abound We found this waterfall while exploring on a back road on our return trip from Laupahoehoe to Hilo. This one was along the old highway, which is seldom used. The trip, though short, took us through areas that were stunning. It was a very nice way to avoid the main highway […]

Lapahoehoe on the Big Island beckons During our trip to Lapahoehoe on the Big Island I wandered to the south side of the park. This gorgeous bay, with its blue waters, white surf, and green hills seemed so idyllic. With all this serenity, it’s hard to believe this is the site of a tsunami that […]

Onomea Bay on the Big Island To get to Onomea Bay you must take a windy side road, then walk down an asphalt path to the bay. On the way down, there are several spectacular views. Unfortunately, the day we were there it was very overcast so we had lots of gray. The views were still […]

Crashing waves at Laupahoehoe When we visited Laupahoehoe on the advice of a friend, we had no idea it was going to be such a wonderful place. The park has a huge expanse of grass where kids can play and just beyond that are these incredible views of the ocean waves crashing. There were a few […]

Kona Coast in black and white This sunset photo was taken when we were in Kona in May 2014. Why black and white? It seemed to suit the day. There’s a certain beauty in a black-and-white photo I wanted to capture. It was less about the colors than it was the mood of the clouds […]
