Hi All,

I had a very, very intense dream last night. I was in the Ala Moana shopping centre not far from Waikiki in Honolulu when I heard a lot of rumblings and explosions. I rushed outside into a park across the road and saw a volcanic island a few kilometres off the coast (yes I know there isn't one there) undergoing a massive Plinian-type eruption creating a spectacular rising column/cloud of ash riddled with lightning & thunder. Absolutely awe-struck and wondering if I'd get a better view if I moved right down on to the bay or whether I'd be better off heading in the direction of the mountains behind, where I'd have more elevation.

Reality hit hard seconds later when it starts raining boulders the size of lounge-chairs up to the size of small cars. The first one landed a few hundred metres away and I can remember seeing it in flight, fascinated by the beautiful parabolic arc it was describing as it hurtled toward ground. Then several more landed quite close-by and there were people in a panic fleeing and being killed. Things were being smashed to pieces and then I saw one that seemed to be heading directly for me and I quickly figured that if I thought that, it was more likely to land just behind me so I ran forward several steps. It smashed into a couple of eucalyptus trees (on Honolulu -- go figure) and just shattered them into matchwood. Seconds later, I could see a huge tsunami-like wave heading into the coast and I started to run for my life away from the sea -- that's when I awoke.

All in technicolour, HD, 3-D and surround sound. Extremely impressive.

I don't attach any sort of significance to what I saw as a "premonition" -- at first I was just fascinated and awe-struck and it then turned to blind panic.


Best,

Les D
