We Interrupt this Vacation...to Wish Christian Bon Voyage!

Much luck and love follow you on your trip my friend!
The new beginning of this fern reminded me of his trip's beginning. I took this macro shot in an amazing rain forest at the top of Kilauea Iki.
Our trip has so far surpassed my wildest expectations. We saw LAVA from Kilauea making it's way into the sea (pictures to follow). I've been waiting since the 4th grade for that! The snorkeling has been awesome as well. We spent some time with an octopus (I love them!) and I had my first close encounter with a white tipped reef shark. When I first saw it, my heart dropped and I got really scared but then I calmed down and realized that at about 3.5-4 feet, I was bigger than he was and I would fight if I had to. Once I realized that I wasn't in danger, it was way cool. I have done my best free diving on this trip. I have gone down to about 20 feet and stayed for a while so I'm very proud.
I will try and post again tomorrow.
Aloha-
Robin

Optical illusion: I thought at first this was a rusting wrought-iron filigree fence post, until I realized (from your explanation) that it was a fern! Excellent image.
