Sky of many colors in beautiful Hawaii


Last month, Dick and I enjoyed our first visit to Hawaii so much, we're already thinking of returning. One of the things we noticed about Hawaii is the varying color of the sky, from minute to minute, hour to hour, day to day, and island to island.

    My daughter was there just over a year ago and she found it delightful. I am afraid that I am not fit/stable enough for that sort of landscape any more. Shall just sit back and enjoy the images instead.

    I was just saying to somebody that our skies always look the same. You are both proving me wrong with your gorgeous photos! Have a great weekend, Kay. Big hug for Dick!

    I can't even see the sky right now: it's foggy out! We had some great ones yesterday though: clear blue with an occasional cloud.
