Upon arrival to kalapana you may have a small part of your brain wondering oh shoot what is this desolate landscape and where am I going. If you're lucky, after a few days at Jade's place you'll truly feel the beauty of the area. I felt like staying on the lava fields was a true reminder of Earth's power and resilience. We really enjoyed our stay and went running out towards volcano national park every morning and for sunset walks. We were treated to many rainbows and a lot of quiet. We took a day to drive out the red road and enjoyed being summer rolls and from the Thai place in Pahoa to eat on the porch. We also enjoyed Roberts Market on Saturday morning. Wasn't much at Uncle Roberts by way of food on a non-Wednesday night in the evenings so any picky eaters may want to head to Kalapana with some provisions (although Pahoa is just 15 minutes away). All in all we enjoyed our stay. Thank you!
