Fun Friday

Another Fun Friday post courtesy of one of my email correspondents. These pictures are amazing and she sent me so many that I'll make part two next week's post.

Have a great weekend, everyone!

This restaurant is situated on the east coast of Zanzibar. Depending on the tide the restaurant can be reached both on foot or by boat. 



Desert with Phacelia  (Scorpion Weed) in flower.


 Balloons  in Cappadocia, Turkey.


 Here's the view from the skyscraper BurjKhalifa in Dubai. The building is 163 floors high. 

And this is the view down. 


These  trees grow in a forest near Gryfino, Poland. The cause of the curvature is  unknown. 


Sting rays migrating through the the Gulf of Mexico. About 10 thousand  stingrays swim from the Yucatan Peninsula to Florida in the spring and  back in the fall. 


More next week....

  3. Amazing photos...I'll remember not to go swimming in the Gulf in the spring and fall. (Sorry about the delete. I apparently had my brain in park when I typed it).

    1. I admit, actually seeing those sting rays might keep me out of the water for SOME time.

  4. Hi, Elspeth. Great pictures, although I still love my new home in the mountains. Speaking of new homes, my blog has moved as well -- hope you'll update it in the sidebar to http://terryodell.com/terrysplace
