Hawaii, Climbing Diamond Head, Day 6


Every famous picture of Waikiki Beach wants to show you the extinct volcano Diamond Head in the distance.


We climbed it! This part of the island is actually quite arid, because the prevailing westerly wind makes the clouds empty themselves over the mountains in the center of the island.

At the top are old World War I fort- ifications. The views are stupen- dous in every direction!
