Travel Blog Post - Day #5 (Hawaii) Volcano!

Hey bloggers! So yesterday me and some of my family went to go look at some volcanoes! It was really cool to look at and go sightseeing so let me tell you what we did!

The Hawaiian Sacred Lands!
So the night before we went to go look at the volcanoes we were staying at an hotel in Kona on the other side of the big island! We were in Kona because we were supposed to go fly to Seattle but the flight was full so we stayed at an hotel!

They day after we drove back to Hilo and on the way we saw some animals! They were goats who looked like they could potentially kill us! Anyways we took some photos with these statues shaped like owls and we knew it was scared land which had alot of history on it by looking at an map. So we jumped back into the car and drove to Hilo, Hawaii!

The Cave!
Sacred Lands!
When we got there we met up with my uncle and aunty and decided to all go sightseeing some volcanoes! When we arrived at the Hawaii National Volcano Park we got to go up this path which lead us to the volcano!

Inside the cave!
The volcano was named Mauna Kea and had a lot of history! They last time it erupted, I think it was in 2008 or 1980. I'm not pretty sure, but guess what we saw real lava! It was really exciting and it looked like a lake of fire!

It was pretty cool and inside a gift shop/history shop we read some stories on history about the volcano which was pretty cool! If you have watched the movie Moana you would've seen the volcano - Te Ka which was pretty evil!

Well she was based on a true woman named Pele! Native Hawaiians believe that Pele a woman who eventually turned into a volcano erupted and is now believed to this day that she still lives in the deep volcanos! It also told stories of how ancient polynesians discovered the Hawaiian Islands and found that volcanos had been erupting when they already go there, which was pretty cool!

Laavaa!!!!
Anyways we went to these blow holes and out came hot steam which made me sweat really fast! It was really awesome! Inside you could see people had thrown coins in the holes and made wishes to Hawaiian Volcano Gods according to a sign there. After that we went to a cave which was really dark and had lava that used to flow in the cave.

Well that's it for now!

Thanks for reading!

A wild adventure

The sun shone on her bedside as her eyes opened up like an new blossom.
She put her silk blankets aside,stood up and felt the cold of her feet on the wooden floorboards. Ally took a few steps until she was at the door. Her hand gripped on the handle as she walked out. Her eyes took a glimpse at her mum making spongy pancakes with syrup and whipped cream.


“Yummmm” she said to herself. “Morning mum” she said. “ Good morning dear” Her mum gave her a big kiss on the cheek. Ally sat on the table,ate breakfast and did her morning routine before she headed of to college. Her dad has been missing since she could say her first words.


At 5 the only memory she could remember of him was her dad laughing with her at the beach. Ally stepped into the school gate thinking of a plan. After school Ally walked along the pathway to home. “Ally” a voice whispered.

Her body stopped instantly. She turned around and whispered back “Who is it” she said with shivers coming up her back.  No one replied. “Probably those little voices saying I forgot my homework sheets at school. Hmmm never mind” The voice popped up again. “Ally” Ok I am not falling for these jokes anymore.


She turned her head around and saw and door between the bushes of the abandoned land that no one ever visits.
“She ran across the road as her caramel hair swished in the air. Her black shoes met the wet mud. “Who cares I'm up for an adventure. She skipped towards the door. But it was not and door it was an reflection from the other side of the road.

How is that happening. Her fingernail touched the reflection it was a bubble.
Skiiiiiiiiid. Her shoes slipped “Ahhhhhhhhhhhhh” she screamt. She fell into a cave. “I thought I was gonna hurt myself” She landed on a big pile of slimy moss. “Gross” Mum just washed this last night nevermind. She took a big footstep onto the hard rock that was placed when this cave was made.
“A light” she echoed. This cave is really big. She walked up and down for 10 minutes until she made it. “Yassssss” Her shoes gripped and she climbed,climbed and climbed to the top. “Wow” She could not believe it.

It was Regor Hospital. Her dad went their one day and poof disappeared. He was never to be seen after that. She took a pic and sent it to mum “Is this the hospital dad was lost in” She immediately answered the call her mum dialled. “Where are you.  “ I made my way here from across the road. Reca road. I'm coming now,“ Don't you finish at 7:00 today ?” “I finish early today okay byeeee.”


Her mum rushed to Reca road walked into the cave,landed on the moss,climbed up and down,climbed up the rocks and made it to the top.
Ally and her mother walked to the main door and twisted the handle. “It’s opened” I am surprised the lights are still on. “10 years Ally” They closed the main door and crept up the crusty stairs.
