"Take me to the river" (part 2 - final)

Part 1 ended with me gazing at this mirror made of water astonished and all alone, escorted only by the sound of the water flowing and the birds singing.

You can call this heaven:

Those trees around here sure have stories to tell:

Look at this huge boulder waiting to fall, hopefully with no one around here:

I am walking up this stream which puts a smile on my face from ear to ear:

As you can easily imagine there's no shortage of water or humidity around and the latter helps nature paints the rocks green. My favourite one is the following which looks (and kinda is) like a giant ball:

I said something about trees with stories to tell before - here's some more of them:

I walk next to the stream trying to find a view point in this small jungle:

It's a pity I didn't manage to capture fishes in this pristinely crystal clear water though I saw a few black ones which were too fast for me to identify them.

As I can tell by the tire marks on the mud some guys have fun with their 4x4 right here:

I'd better walk a bit more though as I'm glad they are not around to mess with this wonderful nature's soundtrack so I take this path:

And it really pays me back big time after a while offering me this wonderful view including Lake Marathon:

I find out that there's an olive grove here:

A little odd as there's nothing like that around but feel free to envy the farmer for the view he gets every time he visits his property:

Don't envy at all the level of access this field has though. I'd like to see how they carry the harvest in such roads after some rainy days. Fortunately I only carry myself so it's easier to get through such stuff:DSC_0096.JPG

No drama unless you are Paris Hilton and hate a bit of mud on your tires:

Here's a 4K video which also allows you to enjoy the sound you missed in the pictures:

Thanks for reading and watching!
