As we descended along Chain of Craters Road making our way down Kilauea Volcano, we came upon more and more different kinds of lava, some changes related to the age of the flow and some related to the type of lava and the environment when it originally shot out of the earth.
This is one of the many craters to visit but one of the few where people walk across the bowl. See those little people down there. We are looking at about one fourth of the crater.
It was raining basically the whole time until we reached this crater – I passed on previous crater viewings in the too-much rain.
