Sept '99 - We leave O'ahu and move over to the Big Isle
Sharon walked out on the lava flow by the City of Refuge -
just before taking a nasty fall on the slick lava.
One day we took a short hike up the Malama trail - there
were Petroglyphs scattered along the route.
Sharon enjoying this short hike.
The trail ends at a large flat slab of lava which has
hundreds of Petroglyphs - sort of a Petroglyph library.
We toured the Waipi'o Valley - we were driven down to the
floor of the valley in an old decrepit Blazer, as we rode through the
valley on this wagon our guides dog ran ahead - after the trip around
the valley, he was ready for a nap.
One of the mules decided Sharon was standing a little too
close, so it took a nip at her - undaunted, we eventually got the shot.
Later that day we toured the tropical rain forest along
the overlook at Akaka Falls.
