Pure and Natural Gullfoss Waterfall, Iceland

on January 4, 2019

Gullfoss Waterfall is the most popular waterfall in Iceland and originates from Hvítá, a glacial river that takes melt water from the Langjökull Glacier! This melt water cascades down in two stages, one 36 feet high, and the other 69 feet, into the 1.6 mile long crevasse below. The fall is located about 1.5 hours outside of Reykjavik on the Golden Circle Drive and is a must see while in this beautiful land of ice.

A beautiful leopard takes a rest in a tree in the Serengeti National Park located in Tanzania, Africa. The Serengeti National Park may be most famous for its annual migration of over a million wildebeest and zebra. The park has a vast array of wildlife that you can see out in their natural habitat. The big five are located here, (lion, leopard, elephant, rhino and African buffalo) as well as honey badger, Nile crocodile, Tanzanian cheetah, impalas, hyena, giraffe, kudu, monkey, East African wild dog, a 500+ array of bird species and so many more! Keep your eye out when visiting this park because you could miss an animal hiding in the trees, an animal with great camouflage or a small animal scurrying on the ground.
