This is the Kilauea Volcano erupting at sunset about 6:50 on September 20. We spent the entire day at Hawai’i Volcanoes National Park -park number 322- leaving our garage apartment (in a coffee plantation) at 5:45am we arrived back at 9:40pm. We did several hikes and started with those on the plain next to the Pacific because you walk on lava fields and it is very hot and dry. So we finished those about 10:30 and worked our way back the 19 mile drive to the top of the caldera. I will do a full report on the parks but we have been going before sunrise and getting back late, I’m just exhausted every night. However the sights at HVNP were just amazing. We did not see eruptions of great height or lava rivers but it was still neat to peer into an active volcano and watch the lava bubble and change intensity. It was a great cap on a day of wondrous sights, sounds and even smells.
