Ready to Travel?

Last night, my Mom sent me a forward (which happens rarely), so I knew it had to be good.  The following is a series of incredible photographs from around the world.  Each one is more breathtaking than the next! Unfortunately, there were no credits attached to give proper thanks to the talented photographers who took these photos.  Nevertheless, if these pictures don't inspire travel fever, I am not sure what will....Enjoy!

Facing a Giant Manta Ray in an Aquarium.

Enchanted River is found in Philippines . It Named “enchanted”

because no one has ever reached its bottom. Many people,

including scuba divers, have tried reaching for the bottom but

have failed, hence the legend of its bottomless pit. Moreover,

locals share that NOBODY has been successful in catching the fish

in this river, whether by hand or by spear. They say its bluish

color is a result of its depth and the water clarity changes

throughout the day. At around 12:00 pm, the water

becomes clearer and even more majestic.

Annual Red Crab Migration.
Each year millions of bright red land crabs leave their burrow

homes on Australia 's Christmas Island and start a long, laborious

trek toward the sea. They descend cliffs, climb banks and maneuver

around obstacles to reach the shoreline and lay their eggs, eventually

returning to the island's central plateau with their offspring in tow.

The synchronized migration resembles a crimson-colored river

undulating across the island and can last up to 18 days. The event

typically lasts over two weeks in November or Dec(the crabs will only

move when it's raining) and coincides with the turning of high tide

and the arrival of the waning moon.
