Courier readers: Jennifer Kong, Jon Waller, Isaac and Lily Kong-Waller

Destination: Mt. Kilauea, Hawaii

Favourite memories: The Kong-Waller family has many favourite memories but the eight-kilometre round-trip hike to the famous green sands beach next to the roaring ocean, lava fields and beach sand was a particular stand-out. It was made even more memorable when, in order to distract Lily from the fatigue, they told family stories.
