It's Tuesday and Our Big Island Adventure continues with a visit to Mauna Kilauea in the Hawaii Volcanoes National Park.

On all of our numerous previous visits to the Big Island we have spent significant time exploring the many facets of the Volcanoes National Park. Not this time. A huge blizzard on Mauna Loa has decided to blanket the entire top of the Big Island with fridge temperatures. Neither Bruce nor I had brought adequate outer gear to protect us against the the icy blasts of freezing wind and sleet. So after warming up in the shelter of the Volcano House and fortifying ourselves with a hot lunch, we headed back down the mountain to the relatively warm coast.
