These are beautiful. I hope I don’t have to pick a favorite.

While I agree with Nancy and Kathy, I like NT, Australia and the Great Barrier Reef! I guess I need to get to Australia!

So many beautiful choices – if I have to narrow it down (I’m prejudiced about needing water nearby) I love the Boat on the Mekong, Cambodia. But the one in China with the field is amazing too. I love your website, beautiful backdrop with the handprints in the sand.

  Agree about needing water near by. Thanks for stopping by with such kind words!

Fabulous shots! I love the dramatic clouds in the Adelaide pic and the fantastic coloured sky in Labuan Bajo. Your sunset shot in Yangshuo is so subtle and beautiful also 🙂 Thanks for pointing me in the direction of your post!

  Thanks for taking the time to check out the post and leave a comment! The Labuan Bajo sunset stopped us in our tracks as we walked back to our hostel from a day of diving one evening. Yangshuo was gorgeous every night. And Adelaide was on a sailing trip with relatives there. All beautiful memories!
