We meet at 7:20AM to catch the 8AM train. The whole town was covered in thick fog. Pretty creepy.
The ants in Russian are on steroids, this is a standard ant "hill".
The "stone river" caused by glaciers.
Magic mushrooms (not edible).
Magic Rocks (also not edible).
Stairway to Heaven.
Heaven. Ok, really it's just a great view of the stone river and surrounding mountains. The Ural Mountains the are oldest in the world so they are a bit wore down by weather and time. It's still beautiful landscape though.
Here are some rock slabs thrown down by Zeus himself when he found out how much fun I'm still having in Russia (he's always been the jealous type).
Jon, it's "Златоуст" :)
ReplyDeleteI like Zeus's craggy rock slabs. However, I never saw a craggy river before. It even looks like a river from the distance. Is the anthill the stone-looking thing or the belt across its middle or both? Very scary any way you look at it. But then my hero, Edward O. Wilson, thinks ants are the end all and be all. Have fun in Romania.
ReplyDeleteSo gorgeous!
