lava flowing into the ocean

I was very fortunate to witness the lava flowing into the ocean on the Big Island in 1986. I am not sure the exact number of times this has happened since Kilauea began to erupt in 1983. The lava is once again flowing into the ocean.

Here are two photos of the lava, each are linked to articles on the recent lava flow.
