The past week had been very crazy, so the little weekended I had up north was a fitting end. Finally had the chance to visit Anawangin Cove in Zambales. The place has a surreal feel, and going there feels like stepping into a foreign place. It's very easy to find a picturesque beach lined with coconut trees here in the Philippines, but never have I seen a beachfront full of pine trees. Pine trees!
It's not that we don't have pine trees here. It's just highly unusual, growing up as a tropical island girl, to be seeing pine trees when you're not in Baguio. I guess I just had to realize that this place is maybe that special, and just soak in its magic, even if it takes me a moment or two.

I'm going to play catch up in all of your streams. Life happened. I missed a lot. Can't wait to get inspired again. (",)
I found this stream on a hike. This time I used the free photo editing software "the gimp" to blend a bw and colorized layer to improve this image (hopefully!). Two second exposure to create the effect in the water.

This little stream runs along the side of our property. Stu found mint growing wild in the culvert in front of our home!
this is a stream somewhere in the Tatra Mountains in Poland...
it was not easy to take this shot as the constant sunlight peeking through the trees created rather harsh highlights - but overall I was pretty pleased with the results...

Enjoying the view next to a rushing Alaskan stream after a long day of dip net fishing on the Copper River outside of Glennallen, Alaska.
In the massacre board game, the game rules are explained on the cards. These cards are huge for demonstration puposes. The actual cards for the game are smaller :)
The seculite I'd had on the Yak wasn't standlighting despite being a + model, so I pulled it and replaced it with one of the seculites I bought last year (seculites aren't grounded, so I don't want to use them on my frames because it would be Yet Another little ground wire I'd have to deal with, and I've already got too many of them with having to hand-ground IQ-Xes and various dynohubs.)
Still no disc caliper on this thing. Still mulling over the best way to route a hydraulic line across the trailer so I can place the master cylinder at the yoke (and then q/r a cable up to a cable splitter on the rear brake cable.)
"The same stream of life that runs through my veins night and day
runs through the world and dances in rhythmic measures.
It is the same life that shoots in joy through the dust of the earth
in numberless blades of grass
and breaks into tumultuous waves of leaves and flowers.
It is the same life that is rocked in the ocean-cradle of birth
and of death, in ebb and in flow.
I feel my limbs are made glorious by the touch of this world of life.
And my pride is from the life-throb of ages dancing in my blood this moment."
Rabindranath Tagore

The long-gone famous Adhari Spring stream during Jacques Cartier's sightseeing of the area on Saturday, the 18th of March, 1912.
We would have loved to have gone on this train but John didn't think we had enough time as we were getting the bus back to Adelaide in the afternoon and there was only one bus running that day. But we would have had time!
Victor Harbor August 31, 2013, Australia.
The Cockle Train travels along the oldest steel railed railway in Australia dating back to 1887 when it was constructed to provide a link between the River Murray and the ocean wharfs at Pt Elliot and later at Victor Harbor.
After leaving Port Elliot the train climbs to the top of the coastal cliffs and passengers then experiemce some of the most picturesque coastal scenery on the Fleurieu Peninsula, with nothing separating you from the beach below and a perfect view of the Southern Ocean - in winter the home of Southern Right Whale.
After a 30 minute journey the train edges into Victor Harbor station, right in the centre of the town and surrounded with its iconic pine trees. Here, the locomotive is detached from the carriages and turned on our specially retained 30m long electric turntable before rejoining the carriages for the return journey to Goolwa.

Why is this icon journey called the "Cockle Train"? In early days of settlement the local residents would take a horse drawn train to Goolwa to collect Cockles from the sandy beaches near the Murray mouth. It was a great day's outing and thus gained its name.
