Hawaii, Part 2

On one of our first days in Hana, we explored some underground lava tubes. Lava had flowed there thousands of years ago and the tubes had remained unchanged. Here are Jason and the boys getting ready to head down into the lava tube.
Still at the start of the tube where we can see sunlight.

Brooke the Explorer!


This was apprently the prime picture spot!




This was also used as a fallout shelter that the owner of this land made in the 60's. He had it stocked with enough food and water for 6 weeks for himself and 15 women....hmmm......



Here's the group in a dark part of the cave. We all had flashlights, but if we turned them off, it was pitch black.





The most adventurous grandparents in the world!






We made it thru the lava tubes and they had a maze made out of these Ti plants. So, Auntie A and Drew were off!









Drew loves to be timed doing things, so we had to time him....






On our way home, we saw this stand on the side of the road that sold homemade banana bread, coconut ice cream, and all sorts of fruit. It was all fresh and organic....we ended up going back to this place almost every day to get another loaf of banana bread!


Back at the house....the boys went with Uncle Ben a couple of mornings and would sit on the rocks by the ocean to get splashed. They would come back soaked and loved it!






I caught this picture of Jackson just when a huge wave was about to spray him. I should have taken an after shot, but I ran to get out of the way!
