Yellowstone's mud volcano produces these nice structures in the mud when the gas comes up. Long, long ago the mud volcano shot up the mud meters and meters high. The mud is quitte warm.

Strong Viking Mud 2016. This is an annual endurance run, covering 7, 13 or 19km, through mud and strenuous obstacles.
Those images were taken at Mud Lake in Ottawa, Ontario, Canada. Its a nature reserve in the heart of Ottawa. Its pretty impressive to see in person.
A stunning sunset over the old and new Forth Bridges. The older bridge was opened in September 1964; the newer one is due to open in 2017 and the road bed is nearing completion.
While I was standing and waiting for the sky to light up I noticed that I couldn't move my feet because they had become stuck in the mud...
...and the tide was starting to come in! My biggest worry was that I'd move my foot but leave the welly behind and then get socks full of gloopy mud. Luckily, with a good bit of shiggling, both feet finally came unstuck with a loud Gloooop sound and with both wellies still attached to their respective feet!
Mud comes in a infinite variety of textures and consistencies. It's always good to find that special kind of rich sticky mud that clings to my feet like glue! It's hard to leave behind and carry on walking!
Now this is me - rare event that I post a picture of myself, but the older I get the less I care about such things.
I was supposed to feel 10 years younger after this mud bath (yeah, as if that is even possible considering my extreme young age!), but instead I smelled like rotten eggs the rest of the day, everyone avoided me, I was an airport for surrounding insects for countless hours, and the worst thing of all: beer tastes horribly ever since, haha :-)
But have to admit that I had a truly wonderful boat daytrip with my oldest daughter (thanks Nienke for taking this one!), more to follow.

The famous Maldon mud race 2016, 300 people do this every year for charity, across the river along the mud and back across the river, I did it in 2008 when it was held at Christmas time and the temperature was around freezing, exhausting!
The Washburn expedition in 1870 first discovered the mud volcano. At that time, what's visible in this photo wasn't there at all. All of this was covered up by a cone shaped dome, I imagine it must have looked like a miniature volcano. But, in 1872, this volcano blew its dome, leaving the bubbling cauldron we see today.
Nathaniel Langford on the mud volcano:
"Dense volumes of steam shot into the air with each report, through a crater thirty feet in diameter. The reports, though irregular, occurred as often as every five seconds, and could be distinctly heard half a mile away. Each alternate report shook the ground a distance of two hundred yards or more, and the massive jets of vapor which accompanied them burst forth like the smoke of gunpowder."

See my gorgeous feet outside on a barefoot walk, something I have started doing now. It was too warm and dry for wet and squishy mud, but this small soft patch felt so amazing under my feet! I was so hard after this. What do you think?
The neo-classicist building of the Mud Baths is one of the most important symbols of the Pärnu resort. It was built in 1926-1927 in place of a bathing house that was burned down in World War I.
The history of the Pärnu Mud Baths, but also of the resort can however be tracked down to the year 1838 when the bathing house by the sea offered warm sea baths in the summer and hot sauna in the winter. The resort started to develop rapidly in the 1890s.
In the Soviet era, the so-called temple of health started to serve the health of the working people; after Estonia’s independence, it became deserted and lost its function. A comfortable boutique spa has now been opened in the historical Mud baths building, to again become one of the main symbols of the Pärnu resort!
