Iiiiit's October 28th again, and you know what that means! No? It means I just noticed it's the pointless anniversary of a day when I presumably wasn't doing very much last year, so made a greatest hits compilation of photos of ace natural sights I'd seen over the previous year.
I'm not exactly running low on new things to show you - I've got almost two months of backblog scheduled in case I get hospitalised or something and can't provide you with your bi-weekly fix of disappointing, low resolution photos of things you'll have to trust looked spectacular when I looked at them with my eyes through slightly wrong prescription glasses. But a tradition's a tradition, even a pointless, non-existent tradition, so here's another year's worth of nice nature things.
Cambodia
Ta Prohm, Angkor Archaeological Park.
Okay, so this is supposed to be natural sights and I'm cheating already, but this temple's about 60% tree
Thailand
Bang Bao Bay, Koh Chang
South Korea
Cheonjiyeon Waterfall, Jeju-do
Seopjikoji, Jeju-do
Manjanggul Lava Tube, Jeju-do
Seoraksan National Park (Winter)
Seoraksan National Park (Wet Summer)
Royal Tombs, Gyeongju.
Yeah okay, they're not natural either. But there's grass all over them, it counts
Japan
Ohori Park, Fukuoka
Sri Lanka
Some place near Kandy
Sigiriya Rock Fortress. Humans may have fortified it for their petty conquests, but I'm pretty sure that massive rock was there first
View from the summit
China
Ngong Ping, Hong Kong
Stone Forest, Shili-- yeah alright, it's not real
Laos
Tham Jang, Vang Vieng
Mekong River, Luang Prabang
Vietnam (coming soon)
Ha Long Bay
Thien Cung Cave, Ha Long Bay
View from Agu Lam peak, Cat Ba Island
Cat Cat, Sapa
Tien Sa Waterfall, Sapa
I guess that's some incentive to visit more nice looking mountains, caves, rivers and waterfalls in the next 12 months (this year was criminally low on volcanoes), otherwise I'll look pretty stupid when this anniversary rolls around again and I have nothing to show for it. I'll probably forget anyway. When are we due another compilation of my face?
