Finally.. I touched the lava

I was on a business trip in California, after a week in Scotland & Iceland and rather than fly back home to Boston on Friday, I decided to fly west to Hawaii as I had heard that the lava was flowing on the surface. It was a trip that was well worth it. I burned up some frequent flyer miles and had the time of my life. It was one heck of an overnight trip!

Pros and Cons
  • Pros:Great weather, great scenery, laid back people, Lava, Lava Lava
  • Cons:Not your typical overnight place
  • In a nutshell:The biggest volcano in the world and it acts like it!
