A magical place, let the island embrace you! we celebrated our 10 yr anniversary, my birthday, and honored our loved ones lost. I've never felt more at home or at peace. The black sand beach of course had nakedness, children, and a love for mankind. the sense of community is strong and beautiful. My husband cooked a lot of meals, we visited pahoa for breakfast (peles kitchen bennies 😋), enjoyed the antics of the gold dust day geckos, awaited the sounds of the coqui rain drops which were especially loud after rainfalls, attempted the very difficult puzzle, and even able to experience the power of Pele after a small eruption from Kilauea. It is places like this that restore your faith in humanity. one love ❤ mahalo. maybe return for good one day.
