Pu'uhonua o Honaunau National Historical Park

In November, we worked here for a week on a map of the plant communities. It is about a half hour south of Kona, where we stayed.  This place served as a refuge for Hawaiians.  If they broke any laws or got in trouble, they would come here to be renewed.  The ki'i (wooden totems) were pretty amazing, along with the sheer size of the village and rock work it entailed.
