    A couple things we wanted to mention regarding our Hawaii vlogs:
    1. The “Big Island” is officially called the island of Hawaii, but we may refer to it as the “Big Island” from time to time, as it is a more commonly known term worldwide and we want to avoid any confusion by making it clear which island we were on.
    2. We likely mispronounced many Hawaiian words, so we apologize in advance. We tried our hardest!

      awesome! Was the ranger an older gentleman that was also doing guided tours? You guys inspired me to start filming my adventures . I want more than just pictures.

      He was a pretty young guy! He grew up on the island and told us crazy stories about going to see the lava flow and all of his experiencing growing up. And while filming and editing is a lot of work, we love having these videos to look back on! It definitely is even better than photos! 🙌🏼

    Thanks for this video!! My husband and I are going back to the big island nov 2024. This will be our 3rd time visiting there. Coming up soon! We have family that lives there so we will be visiting them and we also will be renewing our wedding vows while we are there because we make 25 years of marriage!! Going to maui first to rent a camper van and explore the national park there before the big island. Plan on staying in volcano for a couple of days too!! Thanks again!!

    Spoiled Spoiler alert...I received the postcard prior to my viewing this video....I got a second thrill hearing you mentioning my name... (it doesn't take much to thrill a 77 year old)... It's been years since I visited the islands. I often traveled to Japan on business and I would make it a point to stop over in Hawaii for some R&R prior to returning to the states. Enjoy the remaining days of your travels and stay safe... And, many thanks for the post card.

    I went to Hawaii(Oahu, Big Island, and Maui) about 10 years ago, and we did a helicopter tour over the volcano. That was so neat to see the hot lava from the sky because we definitely could not see it at any of the spots in the park. We went back to Oahu for my birthday last year, but I’m hoping to get back to the big island and hopefully over to Kauai sometime soon! Awesome video! 🧡

    I've recently discovered your channel and have been enjoying watching all of your travels. These Hawaii videos though...we went to Hawaii back in June 2018 and it's so fun to see you visiting the same places we did. We hiked to the green sand beach and visited the same lava tubes, Rainbow Falls and Akaka Falls. We went to a different black sand beach, Richard's, and got to see sea turtles up close at another beach we visited as well. We did the star gazing on Maunakea which I would highly recommend. We were there for sunset, and the it gorgeous. Since that was when the volcano was erupting, the park was closed so we would really like to go back to explore the park. Thanks for the great videos!

    • @AdventuresofAplusK
      @AdventuresofAplusK  3 ปีที่แล้ว

    Great video guys! Did you guys by any chance check out the Volcano House Hotel, right across from the visitor center? It’s one of Hawaii’s most oldest hotel. It’s got an incredible view of Kilauea Crater from the lobby! It’s too bad that the Jaggar Museum will never be open to the public ever again due to last years eruption. You could go there at night and see lava in the lava lake.

      The ranger said that Mauna Loa is overdue for an eruption, so that is pretty scary, but they monitor the volcanoes there like crazy and typically have a good sense of when something will happen. What happened in New Zealand is horrible! 😭

    The mongoose was imported by the Hawaiian sugar planters in the early 1880s to the Hamakua Coast to combat the rodent problem in the sugar cane (and brought to the other islands too)...due to poor research on their part, they later found out that mongooses were day time active and inactive at night which was the opposite of rats/mice...this caused the mongoose to increase in population over all the human populated islands and did not help at all against the vermin problem..
