There were a whole bunch (A herd? A gaggle?) of turtles at Punalu’u. Most were just chilling on the beach, but some were grazing in the tidal pools. (Punalu‘u, HI)

Today was “beach day”. First stop: the black sand beaches of Punalu’u. It was like no other beach I’ve ever seen. (Punalu‘u, HI)

Dinner last night was Black Rock Pizza. I can’t say it’s the best pizza I’ve ever had, but it’s way above average. They have local beer, a really nice patio in the back, and the pepperoni rolls are outstanding. If I were local, I’d be happy to be a regular. ?
