Big Island and Off to The South Pacific

For the past week we have been on the Big Island also known as Hawai'i. We got a rental car and went exploring around the island.

One day we got up at 3am to see the sunrise on Mauna Kea. The top is around 13796ft above sea level but it is supposedly taller than Mt. Everest when measuring from the bottom of the ocean. Also on our adventures we went to a black sand beach and a green sand beach. Ive started to collect sand from different beaches in the world and will continue too along this trip. We are leaving tomorrow morning to head to the Marquesas which are 2300mi away from here or if we cant sail that east we will be sailing straight south to Tahiti which is 2600mi away. It will take about 3 weeks maybe less depending on the wind.
