Heiau near Hawi

Phil got me the book "Hawaii Revealed" for Christmas along with 10 coupons for adventures of my choice. The book is awesome and has taught us a ton about the island we live on. So far we have gone on a hike, explored some caves (on a road that we have been on several times, but never saw the caves), and visited this Heiau (Hawaiian temple) on the northern most part of the island. It has been lots of fun and I plan on doing as many of the hikes listed as we can. We look like tourists walking around with a guide book, but we are ok with that. :) Anyway we took some pictures of this Heiau which was used for human sacrifices to appease the gods. The view was spectacular, but there was a bit of an erie feeling all around the heiau. The whales were going crazy, but we unfortunately did not get any pictures of that.
