Hawaii Trip Part II

17 March 2014 - 3 April 2014 I took a trip back to Hawaii.  I visited a friends there and kept quite busy.  While in Oahu I
Rode my first ATV, although it was governed at a slow speed

Stood up on a paddle board, yes in the water
Did some snorkeling in different areas
Scuba dived seeing octopi, a few turtles, numerous fish and starfish

"Swam with the sharks" while I was in a cage (selfies did not come out)

Seen whales (not up close but still seen them)
Swam in and showered under a couple waterfalls (not as easy or smooth as seen on tv).

Jumped of a cliff a couple times

and flew to Hawaii "The Big Island"

While in The Big Island I seen the volcano craters

 some lava flow, many spots of steam coming from the ground, waterfalls, walked to the END OF THE ROAD

walked through lava tubes/caves, swam and snorkeled in naturally heated tide pools and walked on a Black Sand beach

seen/went to/and jumped off of the Southernmost Point of USA

and took a helicopter tour of the volcanic area and waterfalls.  I even went up to Mauna Kea Ice Age Natural Area Reserve but got refused further access DUE TO SNOW!  That's right, I said SNOW in Hawaii.
