We stopped at a new place to see the Kilauea Flow. Apparently, you can hike down in there. We did not, but we saw a couple of people down in there.
Next, we head to the Thurston Lava Tube. There is first a nice walk through a rainforest.
On down the road to the Lava Trees. Here is another GPS/Elevation marker with some equipment above it. This was not here last year. They have added this station. I assume it is measuring trimmers in the ground.
A very cool Lava Tree...and then I am hugging one.
We went to the Akatsuka Orchid Gardens. They have a new orchid maze and a quiz to tell you what kid of orchid you are. Here are my results....and a orchid in my hair.
Before heading up to Mauna Kea, we stop at Rainbow Falls. I think is is one of the prettiest waterfalls.
Mauna Kea Astronomy Visitors Center. BURRR!!!
The Mauna Kea Silver Sword. There were a few that were in bloom. This is the only place you will find these plants.
