Inspector Gadget's Field Trip — Season 1, Episode 16: Hawaiian Volcanoes / Mount Vesuvius

Episode synopsis

It's an explosive trip to Hawai'i as the ol' Inspector watches hot lava burst from the Kilauea and Mauna Loa volcanoes and checks out the two twin telescopes, Keck and Keck II, which see far off to distant galaxies. Then he takes a ride up the Road to Hana and purifies himself in the seven sacred pools of the Oheo Gulch. The Inspector travels all the way to Italy to marvel at another famous volcano, Mt. Vesuvius, and to check out the preserved cities of Pompeii and Herculaneum, which were buried by wakes of lava and volcanic ash nearly 2000 years ago.
