Holiday Blogging #2 - Travel Experiences/Ratings

Hey bloggers! Today I'm going to tell you about some recent Travel Experiences!
Recently I just finished travelling from Hawaii and The United States! I have also recently travelled to Seattle, Washington which was amazing! And I also travelled to Honolulu and Hilo, Hawaii!

My flight took place on the 30th of August 2017 and I came back on the 15th of September. Anyways me and some family members flew on Hawaiian Airlines which was amazing.
Honolulu International Airport!

The flight took 8 hours straight from Auckland, New Zealand to Honolulu, Hawaii! It was a good flight! I also get plane-sick on flights that take more than 5 hours, have a lot of plan turbulence, and also have a rough landing which results to the flight I took and it was really boring!

Ratings for Hawaiian Airlines!

Flight Attendant Personality - The flight attendants were very kind-hearted people! They served us with kindness and heaps more! There was also a very nice lady who was always smiling! She was really kind! I would rate the Flight Attendants from Hawaiian Airlines - 9/10

Food - Now let's talk about the food! The first meal of the flight was in the first 1 or 2 hours of the flight! It was a light meal with an sandwich, fruit, water, vegetables, snacks and juice! It tasted really weird because we were in the air so I would rate the airplane food - 6 & 1/2 /10. On the way back to Auckland we ate Curry and Rice which was so good! I would rate it 10/101

Comfort - Comfortability! Now the seats we were sitting on were great! But some things were uncomfortable! First of all we did have travel pillows which were very comfortable and made our head and neck very comforting! Well the seat and the back-rest was very hard and was sore to sit on but we did have pillows and just sat on that! I would rate it and - 7/10

Entertainment - When we sat down in our seats we had screens in front of us! They were just behind the seat in front of you, when you sat down! They had Movies, TV Shows, Music, Games and even an app where you could see where the plane is. We flew past Fiji, Tonga, Samoa, Guam, Cook Islands, Easter Island and all the other Pacific Islands! I would rate it an - 10/10

You can read what I did in Hawaii if you scroll down a bit you will see some Travel Blog Posts I made in Hawaii and Seattle! I will also make an Delta Airlines Review soon! Also note I will be going to camp for 1 week so I will not be active for a while!

Thanks for reading!

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!
