Pictures just can't show the enormousness of those waves. Looking for surfers in the normal pictures is like trying to find bacteria without a microscope.
In the one photo before the close up, I actually think I can see a few of them, toward the left had side, either that or you had dust on your scanner. lol
Love the two pictures of the valley taken from the road. You just don't get green that color anywhere but the topics. Beautiful! [Show/Hide Quoted Message] (Quoting Message by guidogodoy from Monday, January 17, 2011 11:47:04 PM)

Ok, a very select few and pretty much a trip around the outskirts of O'ahu.
Hanauma Bay - Great snorkling. Be smart and bring your own gear.

Lookout point over Honolulu / Waikiki

By North Shore. The valley where they filmed Jurassic Park, the last King Kong + many others. Taken from a moving vehicle as there is no place to stop on this two-laner. Yeah, it is that green and amazing.

"Three Tables." North Shore. Sits between Waimea Bay Beach and the Banzai Pipeline. BIG wave day which is what brought me there. Picture before a round of waves...

and during.

Finally, the famous Banzai Pipeline that has killed or injured more surfers than any other spot on the globe. Look closely, there are surfers in just about all the shots to follow. Hard to see as the sun was setting and those waves were so big. Final digital zoom picks out a few maniacs and puts it into perspective.

No, Bud. Lava is only on the Big Island as it is the newest. O'ahu is one of the oldest. While not lava, it is all dried lava aka. igneous rock. Thus, the pointy mountains and pock-marked / layered rock in just about every picture. On Big Island, most say that you really even need to take a helicopter to have a chance of seeing any molten lava.
Hell, the sand on a lot (most?) of those beaches are not native. It is white sand imported from Australia! [Show/Hide Quoted Message] (Quoting Message by Budred from Tuesday, January 18, 2011 7:21:31 AM) |  | Budred wrote: | | Great pics. Love the "green" shot. Awesome views. No lava? |

EXCELLENT!!! Good to know that bringing both doubled your luck! I shall bring both with me next time I see Priest/Halford and see what happens!!

Bud - I'll post a couple of more but it is hard if you know me. I am both a big shutterbug and into doing major hikes / running. Every other corner is majestic and the whole island is basically volcanic rock. Goes from tropical jungle to the north to urban sprawl around Honolulu / Pearl Harbor / Waikiki to the rock / cactus (no joke...look below) to the south.

Goes from tropical jungle to the north to urban sprawl around Honolulu / Pearl Harbor / Waikiki to the rock / cactus (no joke...look below) to the south. Ran the route where they filmed Jurassic Park, King Kong, etc., then HAD to stop by the calm bay where they filmed the intro to Fantasy Island. Da plane! Da plane! I'll take a look and put up a few more ASAP, Bud.

Wonder if it's voodoo would work on my new washer?? I just spent and hour and a half attempting to get the damn thing to spin out the load in it. I finally figured out that you can't put any kind of blanket in that absorbs lots of water along with other items. It's autobalance system won't spin it out, you don't get one of those off balance alarms, that would be too convienent. NO, it just quits spining and starts to fill up again to start the whole rinse cycle over again. Dumb! I finally had to remove the offending blanket and spin out the two loads separately, which also means I had to use the only existing spin cycle that I can dial in which is some sort of drain/spin cycle which takes about 15 minutes to complete. So, when I'm finally done, I'll have spent two hours on this and learned something I would rather have not. I knew I should have gotten the Wilma Flintstone edition washing machine.

You know, I heard it was and I drove up to the temple twice (once in a small tour and again having rented a nice Red Mustang Convert. jeje). Just couldn't justify driving all that way when the big waves were hitting Waimea and, especially, the Banzai Pipeline. Watching the sunset while these maniacs were trying to surf some 30 ft rollers was just too cool.
