I came across this Facebook page that shows pictures of fascinating places around the world. Pretty cool pics, you should check it out. I tried to post a picture here but they are too large.

Are we getting something out of this all-encompassing trip?

Seems my preconceptions are what should have been burned...

    Scrolled through the pictures and thought, "This looks just like the Peace Bridge in Calgary." Turns out it is, I am glad the pics are all captioned. I have never actually crossed it, just driven by.

    The Great Blue Hole is, obviously as the name, a large bluish hole inside the Great Barrier Reef in Belize. Because of its depth, about 145 meters, the Great Blue Hole has different color with its surrounding waters. The formation of this nearly perfect round shape of the hole with 400 meters or diameter can hardly be explained by the scientists in the world. Though, some said that the rising of sea level billions years ago was influenced by the formation of the Great Blue Hole. Most divers are interested in diving around the Great Blue Hole, but only the expert ones are allowed to dive deep inside the Great Blue Hole.

    Some amazing places. I could sit and look at these pics all day. Couldn't fathom visiting some of these places and most of them would be the experience of a lifetime.

    looks so much like the area where i grew up along the Delaware River in NWNJ

    Could be for example Titusville (north of Trenton/Washington's Crossing)

    or Carpentersville (between Phillipsburg and Belvidere)

    but the water seems too calm for those areas,

    looks a lot like Boathouse Row on the Schuylkill but that would make it PA

    Very pretty. I miss the river so much.

    One mysterious place of the world lies in Sahara, the greatest desert in the world. The Richat Structure is how people called this mysterious place which takes the shape of one single colossal eye surrounded by even bigger ring with the diameter of 50 kilometers. Because of its form, Richat Structure is also famous as the Eye of Sahara. Certain theories have been made concerning how this perfectly-circular pattern was formed, but nothing can explain it satisfactorily. The latest reasonable theory involves the wind and water as the cause of a certain eruption in the desert, still the almost perfect circular shape of the Richat Structure can’t be explained thoroughly. The gigantic size of the Richat Structure makes it impossible to be seen when the visitors is right inside the area of the Richat Structure. Probably it is only the astronauts above which can directly view the magnificent magical Eye of Sahara.
