Stargazing

Not that I%26#39;m an expert, but I%26#39;d just like to chime in that if you are going to Kilauea during your stay, you can do some excellent stargazing right from the grounds of the Volcano House. There weren%26#39;t any telescopes when we were there, but after a long day of trekking over lava fields, my partner and I just laid on our backs on the wall in back of the restaurant and gawked at the spread of the night sky for a long time.





Of course, we%26#39;re city folk... the best views we%26#39;d seen of stars before then were in planetariums! ;o) But I%26#39;ve seen clear mountain starscapes from other high, low-light areas, like the Blue Ridge Mountains, and Kilauea put these to shame.
