kona camping.........
i have spent the last 2 days and 2 nites camping beachside here on kona, the island is so different than oahu. as you fly in you see the 1801 lava flow which the airport is built on top of. from sea to the moutain the flow is everwhere. we spent the past to days exploring the lands and just relaxing in paradise on remote beaches. with a perfect bay view from my tent i woke to find 3 sea turtles on the shore as i enter the water for my morning swim, a short walk around the point and on the horizon a whale breaches and splashes as it makes its way past the island. the waters here are just filled with life and its a unique expereince to encounter all this in just the waking moments of a new day.
