@ Fair Mystery
Princess Asclepia had to travel on alone, as Champ declared he had found his nirvana, and had no intention of moving on!
Fair Mystery
It's at night when some plants and flowers give off their most intense scent, or perhaps it's also that after the air has cleared from the clamour of the day, we have more chance of detecting their perfume. Breathing deeply in a pine forest has proven benefits to the lungs!

@ Galloway Falls

Galloway Falls
Have you ever felt a sense of joy as you stand next to an awe-inspiring waterfall? It is said that waterfalls can make us happy. Even though some might dismiss this as an old pets’ tale, there does seem to be some scientific thinking behind the theory that waterfalls generate positive vibes. Waterfalls are considered to be one giant ion generator— the watery downpour gives off negative ions, which we take in as positive energy. Once the negative ions reach our bloodstream, they are said to increase our bodies’ production of serotonin, which is the chemical responsible for relieving stress and depression, and for boosting our energy and happiness. So it’s not surprising we might feel so great when we’re around waterfalls!

Landmark 8/25

@ Ripening Harvest
Of all the pets Princess Asclepia might have met here, Jellin' was the last she expected. But what a great view!
Ripening Harvest
We plough the fields and scatter the good seed on the land.
But it is fed and watered by God's almighty hand.
He sends the snow in winter, the warmth to swell the grain,
The breezes and the sunshine, and soft refreshing rain.
