Hawaii Trip - Volcanoe

More pics from helicopter.
Information on this board descripbes what was it like when Lava river flowed some 20 years ago.

See the little dots - they are people walking! The guides always warn that this is dangerous.






Rivers of lava flowed here in 1986 - they say over 25000 people came to see it every day.




It is said that generally the valcanic eruptions start after an explosion and an earthquake.





This valconoe has been undergoing some activities. The lava is now just 300 feet below the earth's surface and can erupt any moment.














So Exciting to see Valcano! Here is the mother of creation and earth being created right before one's eyes.








Volcanic clouds of 'sulfuric dioxide' continuously spewing their toxins into the ocean.
