Gallery (45 images): Hawaii 2023 - Day 3
On our third major day in Hawaii, we drove to the Old Kona Airport, north of Kailua-Kona and spent a few hours strolling around the botanical gardens there, marvelling at the diverse range of colourful plants and some large and cool looking spiders too!
As is typical for the Kona coast, afternoons are overcast and one really needs to be a morning person to take advantage of full sunshine! It was still wonderfully warm, but with mostly cloudy skies, the colours didn't pop as much as they could have. In the evening, the clouds often burn off and it clears up then, making for nice sunsets at least.
