Day 24 of 30

We had chocolate lava cake and creme brule and Cappuccinos last night at Ruth's Chris Steakhouse in the Shops at Mauna Lani...this shot was taken just after sunset from our table on the upstairs patio.

Kamma's at work so I decided to walk out behind our condo and take a few shots to form a nearly 360 degree view for y'all to see. Facing the southwest you can see the Waikoloa Village Resort area where we work...all the way down the hill and across the lava to the coast.

Straight to the West you can see Maui, Haleakala crater on top at 10,000 ft, taken from the same spot. Quite often our view looks like this with the clouds floating in front of the mountain. It seems so huge rising up out of the ocean!

The beautiful green Kohala Mountains, 5,500 ft at the highest point, to the North from Lua Kula Street...our condo is on the left here.

To the East we have a clear view of Mauna Kea today, 13,800ft to the top near the giant telescopes, and more golf course in the foreground.
