The top of Mauna Kea. It doesn't show on the 'Penguins' version, but on the original there's just enough resolution to make out the domes of the famous observatory right at the top, and if I'm not mistaken I think I can just make out Brian Cox 😉

I'd been pootling along quite nicely through the lush Hawaiian countryside then, only a couple of miles from where I'm staying, suddenly came to this lava field from 1960. Startling and exciting 😁

On my drive over to where I'm staying I called in at the Lava Tree State Park, without any notion of what the name meant. OMG … the lava in this area is that runny ropey version, called pahoehoe (pa-hoy-hoy) that spreads evenly. When a lava flow engulfed the area in the C17 or C18 as it passed through it left lava outlines of the tree trunks to the depth of the lava. Really astonishing. I'll go back for a proper look another day
