Morning In Volcano Village (09/04/09) : Aloha,
Morning arrived and we headed to the Inn at Volcano to have a great continental breakfast of Punalu'u sweet bread, fruits, and amazing Kona & Cinnamon coffee. We then drove to the store to get some water and we were going to call our friend Kreanna to let her know we were in town. When we arrived, Dale walked in and ran into Kreanna and her son. We hung out with them all morning!

Tiare (07/08/09) : Aloha,
Dale was walking to work in the Kaimuki area and came across these beautiful Tiare flowers. It had been raining some so he was able to catch some of the water droplets on the flower. Next stop was Pu'u O Kaimuki Mini Park behind the Koko Head Firestation. It has an amazing panoramic view of the city, mountains, & ocean!

Koko Crater Botanical Garden (05/01/09) : Aloha,
DaBoyZ went out to Koko Crater Botanical Garden to see the beautiful Plumeria grove there! Koko Crater Botanical Garden is a 60-acre basin inside the landmark Koko Crater on the eastern end of the island of O'ahu. The hot, dry climate here makes this garden the ideal location for the dryland collections of the Honolulu Botanical Gardens. The garden is still in the early stages of development, therefore, restroom facilities, drinking fountains and other visitor accommodations have not yet been constructed. 

Garden planting occupy the inner slopes and basin of Koko Crater. The visitor is first met with colorful collections of plumeria and bougainvillea cultivars in the outer crater. A two-mile loop trail leads visitors through a variety of dryland plant collections from Hawaii and around the world. Naturalized exotic kiawe and koa haole trees dominate the landscape along the trail between the cultivated collections. The four major collections arranged by geographical areas are: The Americas, Hawaii, Madagascar, & Africa. In addition to these geographical areas, other significant plant collections include: Cacti, Alluaudias, Sansevierias, Baobabs, Dryland Palms, Aloes, Euphorbias, & Adeniums. Of special note is the native grove of wiliwili trees (Erythrina sandwicensis) found in the Hawaiian section. This magnificent stand of native trees is protected by State law under the Exceptional Tree Act 105.

Koko Crater Botanical Garden is home to a collection of rare and beautiful plants from the tropical regions of the world. Some are rare or endangered in their native habitat. Long-range plans for Koko Crater Botanical Garden focus on the continued cultivation of rare and endangered dryland plants. Special emphasis will be given to the conservation of our highly endangered native Hawaiian flora. Basic xeriscape concepts will be used to support a drought-tolerant landscape in harmony with the surrounding environment.

Protea Paragliding (08/29/08) : Aloha,
On our way down the mountain we stopped at the Sunrise Country Market for a breakfast burrito, some coffee, and check out the mini Protea flower garden.  Next we drove down the road to check out the Lavender garden, but it was closed.  While we were deciding what to do next this paraglider came in for this beautiful landing.  When we stopped to compliment her on her landing we were surprised to learn she was well over sixty and had done the morning glide thousands of times.
