跑夏威夷度假几天，皮晒爆

Hawaii的海水亚，从餐馆阳台上拍的



Kona的教堂和旅馆


差点被火山的烟熏昏



黑色是流进海里的岩浆痕迹



别的相机上还有些日落的，有空再传

侬现在简直是纵横四海啊！

没钱买房亚。下周出差德国

Snorkeling



海里黄色小鱼很多


圣地神庙


黄昏的圣庙


日落



Kona 咖啡的味道很好，买了几包回家

The evidences of the destruction appears along with those of the rich volcanic soil: tropical fruit trees and rain forests, Kona coffee farms, and the old sugar plantations.

Most of the farming equipments used in 19th century California looked like those from China,
