This morning when I woke up and openned the blinds, I saw our cruise ship return back to Kona, Yeah!! Another beautiful day here.  Received an email from one of our current guests said they had so much fan here, they went to the Helicopters and many other tours and had a lot of fan on Big Island.  here is what they wrote to me: "Emmy you guys have been the BEST hosts! I can’t wait to write my review and explain how magnificent your home is. We have loved every moment of our time in your home and in Kona! I am so sorry people have been scared away... we feel very safe here in Kona." The one I just took this morning.   :) Here is the real time air quality report.

With all the media and news talking about Big Island Hawaii volcano activities, you might be wondering if it is safe to go to Big Island.  The answer is YES . The volcano is in the southeastern corner of the island.  Only the volcano area is affected by the volcano. The rest of the areas are safe and nice as usual.  We encourage our travelers take this opportunity to come visit the Big Island and explore the beautiful beaches, rain forests, and enjoy the paradise in the non-volcano area. This is the photo I took from my back yard this morning in Kailua-Kona, with beautiful beach, clear sky and the cruise ship.   Adults and kids were hanging out at the beach enjoying mother nature's beauty Here is an article wrote by Jeanne Cooper (Freelance travel writer) for San Francisco Chronicle  Eruptions in Hawaii: What you need to know before traveling to the islands
