on the last day of 2010, we took yet another trip to hi. we mostly just bummed on the beach again, but this time we also got to see lava up close and personal! which was friggin awesome, btw. that's one of those things that no matter how much it gets hyped up, it's still even more amazing when you see it with your own eyes. (other things in that category: grand canyon, great-wall-of-china, brett tolley)
good thing they had those safety baracades you see above, because i totally turned into an idiot tourist when i saw the lava. i wanted to be as close as i could, and probably would have stepped in it and fried my foot off if they had let me.
this video isn't the best (it was right when the guards were moving us away), but it gives you a basic idea of where we were standing and what it was like to have lava creeping toward you:outside the lava tube:

Amazing! Lava! It was never on my to-do/see list... now it is!
And LOVE the pics of both of you lounging on the beach. Looks so relaxing and soothing! So glad that you guys got to go!
So cool! You guys are always having an adventure. Wish we were closer!
