From Sweden to Tanzania - Part 1


 Thanksgiving is a time to celebrate our blessings. We asked our friends and family to share some photos that celebrate the gifts found in nature. We begin overseas.

 Sweden is an absolutely beautiful country. Our friend, Per, shared some of his photos with us for this celebration of Nature blog.

These  beautiful photos were taken by Jan Carl while visiting the island of Mallorca off the coast of Spain. It is a popular place for Swedes and others who discover this sunny, warm destination.

The following photos are from my young, talented friend, Luke who was fortunate to take a trip to Tanzania this summer with his Dad. These are just a few of the amazing photos he shared with me from his incredible trip!

Definitely not an average day when a teen elephant crosses the road!
