Pamukkale, meaning "cotton castle" in Turkish, is a natural site in Denizli in southwestern Turkey. The area is famous for a carbonate mineral left by the flowing water. It is located in Turkey's Inner Aegean region, in the River Menderes valley, which has a temperate climate for most of the year.
Known as Pamukkale (Cotton Castle) or ancient Hierapolis (Holy City), this area has been drawing the weary to its thermal springs since the time of Classical antiquity. The Turkish name refers to the surface of the shimmering, snow-white limestone, shaped over millennia by calcium-rich springs. Dripping slowly down the vast mountainside, mineral-rich waters foam and collect in terraces, spilling over cascades of stalactites into milky pools below. Legend has it that the formations are solidified cotton (the area’s principal crop) that giants left out to dry.
Pamukkale is a tourist attraction. It is recognized as a World Heritage Site together with Hierapolis.

This is an older pic of mine. But sometimes I like to put the oldies in the spotlight again :)

Hello my amazing Flickr friends !
Today is an orange day at Color my World Daily and the theme at Crazy Tuesday is Planes, trains and automobiles. And of course who is the best one in the field of « Planes, trains and automobiles »? Mr. Teddy Bear of course !! And it is very convenient to have Mr. Teddy Bear with us, since we celebrate Happy Teddy Bear Tuesdays.
I was thinking a lot about this week’s theme: Planes, trains and automobiles. As we all know, I’m the worst driver ever and I hate driving (I will easily walk for hours, in my stilettos, during a snowstorm than driving a car by myself…). !! And this applies for trains, planes and other automobiles in general. But then, I remember that Mr. Teddy had a passion for trains. He has few trains in his collection and this one is truly special ; it is a flying train ! And if I remember right: we never had a flying train on this Photostream !! So all aboard the flying train !!
Unfortunately, I have another video meeting this morning so I will not be able to go with you … But dont you worry, I’m sure Mr. Teddy Bear will take me after work !
Mucho, mucho amor for you all !! And see you soon !!
Thank you so much for all your lovely comments / favs/ general support / happy thoughts!! Stay safe and well!! And see you soon on Flickr !
Hello my amazing Flickr friends !
Today is a black and white day at Color my World Daily and we celebrate Sliders Sunday. Since we went apple picking yesterday, I decided to go with a flying apple. Strangely enough we never had a flying apple on this photostream. And I’m not talking about levitating apples ! I’m talking about an actual apple with wings and flying… I’m truly surprised but then again my gin and tonic soaked memory is … well…soaked in gin and tonic. So without any further delay: flying apple. Be carful, not to get hit by this flying apple !!
When an apple hits you in the head you might feel a little bit disoriented or lost for a while, some hurtful childhood memories may resurface. I'm talking from personal experience...once my son hit me with an apple by accident since his abilities to throw something at a moving target with success are as good as mine… It felt like I almost got a concussion !!
Mucho, mucho amor for you all !! And see you soon !!
Thank you so much for all your lovely comments / favs/ general support / happy thoughts!! Stay safe and well!!
It was a wonderfully peaceful and foggy morning at the pond in Troy NY's Oakwood Cemetery.

പുലർകാല സുന്ദര സ്വപ്നത്തിൽ ഞാനൊരു
പൂമ്പാറ്റയായിന്നു മാറി
വിണ്ണിലും മണ്ണിലും പൂവിലും പുല്ലിലും
വർണ്ണച്ചിറകുമായ് പാറി
പുലർകാല സുന്ദര സ്വപ്നത്തിൽ ഞാനൊരു
പൂമ്പാറ്റയായിന്നു മാറി
നീരദശ്യാമള നീലനഭസ്സൊരു
ചാരുസരോവരമായി
ചന്ദ്രനും സൂര്യനും താരാഗണങ്ങളും
ഇന്ദീവരങ്ങളായ് മാറി
പുലർകാല സുന്ദര സ്വപ്നത്തിൽ ഞാനൊരു
പൂമ്പാറ്റയായിന്നു മാറി
ജീവന്റെ ജീവനിൽനിന്നുമൊരജ്ഞാത
ജീമൂതനിർഝരി പോലെ
ചിന്തിയ കൗമാര സങ്കൽപ്പധാരയിൽ
എന്നെ മറന്നു ഞാൻ പാടി
പുലർകാല സുന്ദര സ്വപ്നത്തിൽ ഞാനൊരു
പൂമ്പാറ്റയായിന്നു മാറി
The spider thread has accidentally helped me to take this shot. I cannot identify the web on this photo.
