Colbert on Vacation - Day Ten

If Stephen has been taking my suggestions of where to go while on his vacation, he may be thinking it's time for someplace warm. So today I'm going to recommend he go to Hawaii. Although it is a small state, there's lots to see and do, so he will have to limit himself to just a few activities. I'm going to suggest he learns how to hula dance, kayak, surf, and snorkel. He can even snorkel with Green Sea Turtles! (Here's a little information about Green Sea Turtles.)That will keep him busy. For more relaxing activities, he can do some sightseeing.

One place he just must visit is Volcanoes National Park. It would be really cool to see. No, wait, that's probably wrong, it would be hot. Well, it would be interesting to see. He should bring a jar with him, and if no one is looking, scoop up some of the lava flowing by for a souvenir - a free souvenir!

If Stephen does all those activities I suggested, then he deserves to sit around on the beach and soak up the sun. One possibility is Hapuna Beach State Park. It's one of the Big Island's biggest white sand beaches. He can even build sand castles, or let all the friendly beach goers build a monument to his glory all around him. Hopefully someone will help dig him out when it's all done. Hopefully!

Then he can head to the other side of the island to Punaluu Black Sand Beach. And he should bring more jars or bags or boxes and bring samples of both kinds of sand back. It would even be a good idea to bring enough sand back of each kind to use for sandboxes. That would be so much more fun that the brown sand kids typically have in sandboxes. I hope that wouldn't be too heavy in his suitcases.

Anything else Stephen is interested in, he can find at the Go Hawaii website.
