When we visited Naples in the 1970's the old saying "See Naples and die" came to my mind. Not because of its claim that Naples was so magnificent that there was nothing else in the world left worth to see but because you would probably be murdered there.

It was Hilo that your ship had to leave 500 PAX behind after the Tsunami warning!

If your phone goes off, run like the wind back! 😳
Yes. It’s the tsunami capital of the world apparently and the tour guide was excellent at telling us the story. Decimated by multiple tsunamis just this century as it’s the first place to experience a tsunami from earthquakes from Alaska through to Chile.

There’s no Hilo Hattie in Hilo but I see there’s one in Kona where we will be tomorrow.

Today it was volcanoes.

Steam vent.

Smoke and ash. Last Friday on eruption the wind was blowing towards the car park and there’s volcanic glass and ash everywhere. Being a national park there’s no souvenering.

There used to be Hilo Hatties EVERYWHERE. Became a running joke on our HI cruise years ago.
