Lingering Xmas

So who still has their decorations up on January 6?

First sunset of 2010

From my balcony here's how the setting sun looked on the first day after the calendar changed.

More Kilauea Volcano

Big Island of Hawai'i
Kilauea Volcano in Hawaii Volcanos National Park, along the rim. More shots of, around, and looking down in to the Kilauea Caldera (essentially the flattened cap of hardened lava on the top of the volcano), and the Halema'uma'u Crater (the depression with the smoke coming out of it). The red flowers are Lehua blossoms on 'Ohi'a trees which are plentiful in the park.

Kilauea Volcano

Big Island of Hawai'i
Kilauea Volcano in Hawaii Volcanos National Park, along the rim. These shots are of and around the Kilauea Caldera (essentially the flattened cap on the top of the volcano). The smoke is coming out of the Halema'uma'u Crater.

(Were you expecting there'd be lava? That doesn't come out here; it flows underground and comes out by the ocean, as seen in this post.)

Fern drops

A few shots from around the grounds of the B&B in Volcano Village (on the Big Island of Hawai'i) where we spent one night of our honeymoon. (Yes, it was in a rain forest, and yes, the drops of water on the ferns were from rain.)






The last one is a candle out on the patio.
