- I remember standing at Kilauea five years ago in total awe, witnessing both the beauty and devastation of this magnificent and life-giving volcano.

For a semester when I attended UH Hilo I rented a room in a house right next to the Kapoho fish ponds. I loved to snorkel there and I always thought that someday I would live there again. When the lava took the ponds I cried for days. I still feel tears welling up whenever I think about it. I never felt more at peace than when I was floating in those ponds surrounded by fish and coral. Calling them fish ponds did not do them justice as many of the ponds were basically miniature coral reefs. Even as I type this now I can’t stop the tears.
I agree the ponds in Kapoho was so Heavenly when I snorkled 12 years ago. So sad now it's been taken away from us.😢
Puna is a very special place, lava or not! Aloha Leilani and Kapoho people. I wish you all the best!
Smiley is making me smile. Great positivity and resilience.
It's a very beautiful, magical place. I understand why people stay. That's not just steam that comes out of fissure eight. There is a lot of sulfur outgassing down there that few talk about. There is magma still underneath. It probably will happen again like it did before. So far lava is not returning to Halemaumau. . A lot of earthquake activity around the crater and yet it doesn't. They say it can give little or no notice and can come up somewhere else. All newcomers to the area should know this. Don't think it's a safe place to live or that it will never happen again
Open the boat ramp, it's been 5 freaking years. Total bs
I can't believe It's been 5 years but Madam Pele said you may borrow temporarily but it will always be hers
Did she tell you that personally? Doubt she would like a mortal human speaking on her behalf though, how do you know what the goddess believes?
@@tamie341 lol Christians call it faith... Kanaka mauoli call it reality... respect the culture or spread smallpox your choice... the Aina was here long before you grew thumbs, and will be here long after human extinction...
@@dustinpaclik9857 The "aina" is just nature and it exists everywhere not just on a few islands in the ocean... The world is a lot bigger than Hawaii.
Im gonna buy land there 😎
Did the geothermal plant recover?
They're now expanding operations.
Yes the lava never hit the plant
Wow, Woody Harrelson lives there? 😁
Wea the Hawaiians ?
Human stupidity is to go back and live there again while volcano still active.
@agent00soul48 not true, it’s only active in certain spots, that’s why it’s zoned by numbers.
@agent00soul48 zone tells you where it’s safe, that’s why zone one was hit because it’s the nearest.
@agent00soul48 Kohala. Every island is a volcano but only active part is in the zones 1 to 2 area, 3-7 possibly, 8 and 9 not likely. That’s why insurance will cover from zone 3 and up.
@agent00soul48 I can view a lion from a distance, but to try getting on his back after biting you, well that’s up to the idiots, it’s no different then people who keep building and loosing their properties on places like Tornado Alley, coast of Florida. If that’s your cup of tea, go ahead and drink.
@agent00soul48 😉
