Description
Big Island Hawaii USA. While peeking through the lush tropical green serenity, Be mindful, Laupahoehoe Point Park memorializes the 24 people killed in the April Fools Day 1946 tsunami. The giant waves rose to 56 feet above sea level sweeping away a schoolhouse on the point along with 21 school children.
