Here's 10 pictures of maybe the coolest thing I've ever seen in person. After a lot of dumb luck, a lot of sitting around, and a lot of staring at the HVO webpages about it, I caught an episode of fountaining in the ongoing Halema‘uma‘u eruption of (at?) Kilauea. USGS estimates a height of ~365m/~1200' at its highest point in this episode.
And yet, I have definitely waited longer for single eruptions of geysers. The atmosphere was really similar though: chaos, excitement, someone cried, hundreds of people showed up out of nowhere like 5 minutes in, and in that moment, without a doubt, there was no where else on earth I would have rather been.

Part of the ancient Roman road to Gaul near the Italian town of Donnas in Aosta Valley has been carved into the rock, bearing a testament to the Roman engineering capabilities. It was constructed during the time of Augustus.
