Wow! So much water. Amazing and beautiful.
Janet - isn't it amazing that all that water comes from the sky? That may sound silly at first, but when you realize there's no surface water or river feeding it, it's mind blowing.

So much of each island isn't accessible, but a helicopter tour can take you to see those areas. It's money well spent.
Thanks for your first time comment!
