Grabbed some terrific sandwiches for lunch later on
Hawaii's Mountain View was on our way
And here's downtown Mountain View
Pu'u O'o, the active volcano vent from Glenwood Dr.
This chill ukelele-playing ranger was helpful
Where the magic happens
The Jaggar Museum had lots of interesting lava info
Took another look at Halema'uma'u Crater
Ran into some Nene, Hawaii's goose
The Nene is Hawaii's state bird
The Nene are in trouble, so be careful
This little guy visited us during our lunch
Then he proceeded to hop onto Doris's hat
Our lunch at the end of a hike had a view of Pu'u O'o
Doris checks out the view
This pointed out the various sites from the lookout
Doris's turn to take photos
Doris photos the Pu'u O'o vent
Then we hiked back
The meeting of two different lavas (jagged vs. cake batter)
Visited the Volcanoes Park petroglyphs
One of their petroglyphs
More petroglyphs
More petroglyphs
Then had a look at the Holei Sea Arch
We scoped out the lava conditions
Rangers had telescopes to view the lava again
Where the road ends (very recent lava)
Doris stands where lava cut off the road
Umm, I wasn't going to park there anyway
I had trouble speeding there
Oh look, a chunk of road survived
Then we viewed the lava in the distance at nightfall
We made another appearance at Kilauea Lodge for dinner
They seated us by an awesome photo
The upper area of the International Fireplace of Friendship
And the lower area of it
