🥇 Familiar trails or a trip to the Terekli and Chukuraksu waterfalls, Tashkent region, Uzbekistan by Hive account@damm-steemit

Hello, today I would like to tell you about my return visit to the Chukuraksu and Terekli waterfalls. I spent almost the whole summer at home, having got out only to Boysun for blitz-ascent of the three-thousander Sanjar. And now it's time to get backpack out of the basement again and try to squeeze my obese body into hiking pants. Having somehow buttoned up my pants, at the appointed time I arrived at the meeting point. This time the departure was scheduled quite late and therefore it was not possible to photograph the sunrise.

🥈 Whale Watching at the Gulf of Thailand by Hive account@george-topalov

Hello Hive! It’s been a while since I went somewhere or did something exciting but with the regulations in Thailand loosening up I couldn’t wait no more. The first activity we went to was totally worth it and a real unique experience. Turns out whales migrate through the Gulf of Thailand and stay here for around a month to feast. Since the pier to get us to this activity is about an hour drive from home, it was something we couldn’t miss seeing.

🥉 Tales of the Urban Explorer: Hyde Library by Hive account@slobberchops

“Hyde Library is open, we need to get there quick” Hive account@anidiotexplorers as always, the eyes and ears of the Manchester Underground was telling me this over Facebook messaging. Facebook does have its uses..., but not many. It was one of those old majestic buildings that I never manage to gain access to. We added it to the itinerary and scheduled it for a visit hoping for some success.
