Today’s highlighted photos are of Thailand’s Phi Phi islands – countless fortress-like small islands situated between Phuket and the mainland. These islands have been slowly and beautifully carved by crystal clear and mostly calm sea water (except for a rare tsunami temper tantrum). The shapes of these islands are striking, many having a narrow eroded base with a broader top.
While on Phi Phi island, we enjoyed watching this monkey eat a piece of water melon a friendly tourist offered to him!
A visit to the Desert View Watchtower on the eastern portion of the Grand Canyon’s South Rim. Constructed in the 1930s, it offers magnificent canyon views and a tie to the Native American history of the Canyon.
I was visiting a friend, and this was the view from their house. I could understand why they built their house facing this direction. I was taken by the beauty!

A beautiful place, Dr. Y. And that monkey is just too cute. Did you bring him home with you?
Would love to, but it might be illegal. Ha Ha!
Agree, the Phi Phi islands is a beautiful place. The scenery, the people and the animals!
