Meanwhile, authorities have downgraded the risk from Kelut on Java and allowed residents to return to their homes adjacent to the simmering volcano. Umm, the authorities did the same thing on Martinique in 1902; admittedly, they didn't have seismometers then. But still, I'd be staying with friends a bit longer. Waking up with a pyroclastic flow in your backyard is just not a good way to start the morning.

All the worry about Mauna Loa swelling has seemed to have died down since a while back. That is the real threat to the Big Island.

It’s been 15 years since I last flew over it but it’s still one of the first things I remember about the islands. Simply beautiful.

That is quite a photo. I’m looking forward to photos of Anak Krakatau as well.
