Our second trip to Hawaii came 3 years later in 2008. For this trip we spent 18 days traveling the Big Island, Kauai and Maui. It was an amazing trip!
Our first stop... Big Island
Beautiful sunset
Snorkeling with sea turtles! They were right up near the shore! Amazing!
Hiking through lava tubes
Golfing
Visiting the active volcano - we even saw lava flowing into the Pacific - truly amazing
The next island we hopped over to was Kauai. Going from an island which has been covered in lava to a lush, green beautiful place was amazing!
Sunset near Hanalei

Yep, still hiking down to the beach
