How is it going?: My family and I have been having a wonderful time, and have experienced a lot things with them! My experience has been wonderful, I've learned many new things, such as certain pin points of Hawaii's history and a lot of facts revolving around the big island. My mentor and I have been with each other a lot throughout this,and have been talking a lot about different facts, even while in the car! We attended the volcano, which hasn't been active in over thirty years. While there, I learned history about the volcano, and also got to see it in action. The view wasn't that great, caused by the roads all being cut off. Many different people were gathered around, and it was a pretty large croud!
What do I need to change?: Nothing! There's nothing I would want to change towards this project. I'm very happy to be able to have this experience and share it with others! What's working well for me is being myself, having fun, and learning so much! I've been reading articles and websites about hawaii constantly, though my memory tends to not be the best, I'm trying my hardest to remember everything, even if it takes re-reading repeatedly. Overall I'm glad I choose to do my project on Hawaiian culture, its so much fun! Here's some photos that I've taken:

Like I said, the view wasn't that great, especially during the day. But it was still a really awesome experience, especially with binoculars! The road was closed off due to the amount of bursts the volcano is having, and we weren't able to go past the tourist point.
