Kalo pengen dapat pemandangan seperti ini, jauh-jauh hari kudu pesen tempat penginapan yang terdekat di pantai. Cuma ada dua penginapan yang disediakan, satu rumah ada dua kamar, dan tiap kamar bisa diisi dua orang.
Kalo udah penuh, pilihan lainnya menginap di area Savana Bekol. Lumayan jauh dari pantai, pastikan ada kendaraan kalo mau ngejar sunrise, kecuali anda pelari maraton.
In 2014 I visited Esfahan, and made a picture of a lady working in a store, this is the picture I made back then: flic.kr/p/kZWNPc
Now I met her again :-)

We parked at a little picnic area on Two Medicine Lake. When we walked down to the shore it was absolutely breathtaking. The breeze from the water, the crisp air on our skin, the smell of pine & sweet grass. Everything about this place was majestic. We felt totally alive, we danced, we hugged, we sang. I even splashed a handful of water on my face just to feel refreshed. I always wanted to witness a place like this in my lifetime, and we did. There is truly no place like Montana.

We rode a gondola lift to the top of Big Mountain & saw some of the most fascinating sights of my life. Mountains as far as you could possibly see. Words & photographs do no justice.

We drove past the Chimney Tops and up the winding roads. There were tunnels every so often where everyone would honk their horns.
Shortly after, we arrived at Newfound Gap: the state border between Tennessee and North Carolina. Elevation 5046 feet!
It was here that we discovered why it was named the Great Smoky Mountains. There was a hovering blue haze across all the hills, mountains, and peaks.
Next stop was Clingman's Dome - the highest point of the entire Appalachian Trail. We were so high that clouds were eye level. We were surrounded by the Smoky Mountains.

Day five was full of whitewater rafting, eating, taking long rides searching for wildlife, and enjoying our last full day in Montana.
Although day six was busy and departure was upon us, we did some last minute exploring. We revisited some old places and stumbled on new gems as well. Firstly, we drove down to Whitefish Lake where it all began.
We took the same path where we first saw Montana water. The woods and the shoreline felt more similar and special this time around. Instead of coming, we were going. It was a special goodbye, considering I did not have my camera with me most of the first day (it was charging back at the lodge!) Every breath and step I took reminded me of a few days prior, except this time, I was reminiscing on everything we had seen and how wonderful of a trip we had. Whitefish Lake was a beautiful introduction to what were were about to experience and it was a very fitting outro of our time spent here.
One of the most incredible things about Palau is that it is home to an amazing Jellyfish Lake. Not surprisingly, this is one of Palau’s most famous attractions. Jellyfish Lake is a marine lake located on Eil Malk Island. Every day, millions of golden jellyfish migrate across the lake. While they do this, you can go swimming with them!
Swimming with the jellyfish was actually forbidden in recent years, as the jellyfish population was in decline. However, as of 2019, the jellyfish numbers are on the rise and swimming with them has been reopened.
Jellyfish Lake is around 12,000 years old. It’s a remnant of the last ice age where, during that time, the sea level rose to the point where sea water began to fill the basin. But when the glaciers receded, there was no place for these jellyfish or other fish to go. This isolation allowed the species in the lake to develop on their own and become unique (Darwin would be proud!).
In 2005, there were around 30 million jellyfish in the lake, though that number was in decline for many years. By 2016, there were almost none.
Fortunately, there are now around 700,000 jellyfish back in the lake and scientists are optimistic about the numbers continuing to grow.
While five days is too short to properly explore the Faroe Islands, we lucked out with spectacular weather that made taking in the country's dramatic landscapes an absolute pleasure. While people often talk about the Faroe Islands as being very similar to Iceland, Scotland or Norway the truth is it is its own distinct destination with raw shoreline and distinct geological formations that make it truly unique to experience and explore.

It was our six month anniversary of our marriage and we figured why not make it memorable. We drove out to the Salton Sea, camped on the beach and then drove over to some of our favorite abandoned locations and the mud pots. Noel brought her wedding dress and I brought my high school tux I still had for some reason. My friend Steve ran my camera and I processed what came out. It was an amazing time with one of the only girls I know who would go to these lengths to have so much fun by my side. I am truly blessed.

Mini Series: Evening Drive
It was one of those days CJ and I didn’t want to lay around the apartment after work, so we hopped in the jeep and drove. We followed random country roads, eventually leading to the Mason-Dixon line. It was a peaceful, simple evening and one of our favorite things to do.

After leaving Whitefish Lake, we headed towards Kalispell. The city streets seemed pretty busy, so we escaped to Woodland Park, a quiet place with a beautiful flower garden and crescent pond. Waterfowl were everywhere, hiding beneath weeping willows, going under little bridges, or casually swimming along. There were fountains and archways, trees and flowers - just an overall good place to get some fresh air before our flight.
While walking through the park, we found an art installment. It was a gazebo, but the columns were entirely decorated with handmade glazed tiles.
A sign read:
"Community Spirit Monument:
In working together as a community towards a shared vision, in spite of our differences, citizens of all ages and walks of life created over 2000 tiles for this project, celebrating the majestic beauty and rich diversity of the valley. We are all one!"

Edited differently for this shot than the other. I switch positions from the middle of the building down about 50 feet and by then I got the chance to watch the fog roll in and consume the city.

Our adventure on day two led us all the way south through the Great Smokies and back. We enjoyed a relaxing night at Berry Springs Lodge and scouted out our adventure for the next day. Day three, we decided to head east, around the National Park instead.
We began in Gatlinburg, stopping at a few overlooks and admiring the town from above. We then followed Little River east, hiked at a few stops (Mom relaxed in her stone chair!), checked out Elkmont Campground, and eventually we made it to a man-made waterfall from the 1800s, "The Sinks".
We headed out of the National Park toward Townsend, a quaint little mountain town and onto Foothills Parkway, which skirted around the Great Smokies. It was a perfect road for bikers and sightseers. There were not many tourists at all but so many beautiful stops and overlooks.
One place in particular was Look Rock Tower, which was too high for Mom, but I had to check it out. I could see the highest peaks of the Smokies and an awesome panoramic view! After I came back down to find her, she had found some cool rocks to climb, lizards, and neat mushrooms for me to photograph.
We drove Foothills Parkway as far as we could, finally ending at Chillhowee Lake.
History of the Sinks:
“The Sinks waterfall on Little River Road is a man-made waterfall.
During the early days of logging in the mountains, loggers used the river to float timber to mills downstream. During a flood in the late 1800s, a massive log jam formed here at the mouth of a horseshoe bend of the river. Loggers used dynamite to free the logs. The explosion blasted a deep hole in the rocky streambed, creating The Sinks waterfall. It also changed the course of the Little River—the water now flows over the waterfall rather than around the old horseshoe bend.”

Sekarang disebutnya #rivertubing dulu aktivitas ini kami kasih merek arung jeram donat.
River Tubing, konsepnya mengalir. Satu orang satu perahu yang dipompa dari ban dalam, tanpa kendali, mengalir ikut arus sungai.
Arung jeram donat. Konsepnya uji nyali, sengaja jadi sarana latihan para cadik sebelum naik perahu benerannya. Satu donat diisi dua orang berdampingan, masing-masing pegang satu dayung. Tantangannya adalah bagaimana mengkoordinasikan rekan dan perahu yang labil gak jelas bentuknya (mana depan atau belakang tinggal kesepakatan aja)
Keduanya emang aliran menantang, menyenangkan dan pasti basah-basahan #goexplore
