Our winners today 🍍


🥇 Today's day trip: Waikerie silo art and other stuff, Australia by @galenkp

The whole country celebrated the Australia Day public holiday today and Faith and I decided it would be cool to go and see some of it, Australia, instead of going to the beach like usual. It started as an overcast sort of day but not too hot so we decided to head to a place on the Murray River called Waikerie where there was some silo art we wanted to see. It would be a long day but we were up for it so saddled up the big dog, my Landcruiser, and hit the road...Much of which looked like that below.

🥈 Hike to the unnamed peak of the Chatkal ridge, Tashkent region, Uzbekistan by @damm-steemit

Hello! After almost a month of inactivity, I finally went to the mountains. We finished last year with climbing the summit of Kungurbuka, and then almost three weeks spent at home, recovering and resting. In early January, "Mysterious Uzbekistan" announced a trip to the Chatkal ridge and I gladly signed up. Check out was not very early. Of course, not very early by the standards of "Mysterious Uzbekistan" :). We gathered at our appointed place, got into the car and hit the road. Our final destination was located on the southeastern slope of the Chatkal ridge, not far from the town of Yangiabad (translated as "New settlement" or "New city").

🥉 Temples in Koh Samui, Thailand by @george-topalov

Today I'll show you some of the temples we visited on the island. There are many temples and shrines on this island - the biggest and probably most famous one is the Big Buddha Temple. We managed to visit 3 of these sights and that is what today's post is going to be about.
