This is turning out to be an art film, the eternal wait for the next episode! Old Malayalam joke... I just lost a bunch of stuff I typed but not to be defeated, I plod on.
Stayed on the Kona coast in a hotel that had character, the Manago. Picture of a sign from the front desk.Rent out Kayaks to go out to the Cooks monument. While my fellow travellers snorkel I wade along the shore and snorkel in shallow waters. The colors, the diversity were unbelievable. Some of the reef fish especially the Lion fish, angel fishes of many colors, butterfly fish were also staring at me. Sorry no pictures didn't risk taking the camera in the Kayak.

Head out to the National Park a good two hour drive through some beautiful landscapes of coffee, macadamia farms, and Ohia forests. On the way stop for a while at the black sand beach. At night we reach our little home stay - Volcanoe Guest House.
