Out-of-the Ordinary places

Someone from our photography group at work sent these photos around which are really cool... pictures of out-of-the-ordinary places around the globe....

There's so many I'll share these the next few days to get us through the weekend..... dream a little and just imagine yourself there!


The world's highest chained carousel,
located in Vienna, at a height of 117 meters.  

Emerald Lake in the crater of an extinct volcano. 
Tongariro National Park - NewZealand.

Restaurant on a cliff on the east coast of Zanzibar.
Depending on the tide, the restaurant
can be reached both on foot and by boat.
Office of Selgas Cano in Madrid

Desert with Phacelia (Scorpion Weed).
Flowering once in several years.

Balloons in  Cappadocia.

Dubai. The view from the skyscraper BurjKhalifa. T
he height of buildings is 828 m (163 floors).
And this is the view looking down

 And the view looking down...

These trees grow in the forest near  Gryfino , Poland.
The cause of the curvature is unknown

The border between Belgium and the Netherlands in a cafe.

Twice a year in the Gulf of Mexico about 10 thousand
stingrays swim from the Yucatan Peninsula
to Florida in the spring and back in the fall.

In the resort town of  Skagen  you can watch
an amazing natural phenomenon.
This city is the northernmost point of Denmark,
where the Baltic and North Seas meet.
The two opposing tides in this place can not merge
because they have different densities.
In the Chinese province of  Shandong is a
bridge across the Gulf of  Jiaozhou.
The bridge length over 36 km is calculated for eight car lanes,
and is the longest sea bridge in the world.

Day and night. The monument in Kaunas , Lithuania

An unusual tunnel in California 's Sequoia National Park
This statue, created by Bruno Catalano, is located in France.

 
Is this all they had left after they gave us their Statue of Liberty???
