On our fourth day on the Big Island, we explored the town of Hilo! We ate tons of delicious foods, like a massive pitaya bowl, the crunchiest pork belly, and mochi, as well as visited ‘Akaka Falls, Rainbow Falls, and a super cool lava tube called Kaumana Caves. We loved the lush scenery on this side of the island and it was one of our favorite days yet!
