First Days on The Big Island

Oh, to have young bones, again. It's only a nine + hour flight from Brisbane QLD to Honolulu but for some reason this one felt like forever. The first thing you feel getting off the plane is humid -- it's Hawaii's way of saying "Welcome Home": you're immediately enveloped in the warm embrace of moistened air, telling you it's time to slow down.

You can't help it: you slow down. "Ehhh, 'at's how!" :)

But you folks don't want to be reading my tripe... you wanna see dee peec-cha (pictures) so okay, here you go:
Hamakua Coast from Onekahakaha Park, south of Hilo
An Incredible Welcome

Pawpaws from this tree (I think)

The host was as welcoming as the setting

The coastline, Hilo-side, is fairly rocky

Two beauties I discovered sitting amongst the lava
Another gorgeous day in the tropics
