Even More Hawaiian Adventures

Hi, families! We are having a great time here in Hawaii. Since we last wrote to you, we visited the Volcanoes National Park and have been swimming. The B's didn't get any pictures of us at the volcano - man it was really windy. We would have been blown away! But here is a picture of what we saw, anyway. There were craters, rough lava, smooth lava, cinder cone sand then by the sea we saw the sea arch. Unfortunately, the surface lava is flowing in an area that they have closed to the public because it is not safe to go there, so we did not see any new surface flows.
The next morning we went swimming at Hapuna Bay. Man, the water was so nice and warm. The waves on this side of the island are more gentle, and the bay is a little protected. We loved sitting on Little B's swimboard and just floating around. We were really glad that we were carried to the water, though. That sand was HOT!
Well, we haven't downloaded any more pictures, so we'll sign off and get ready to head to a new beach!
Hope to write again soon.
