Daydreaming. An early morning storm has passed over the area dumping heavy rain on the iconic Cathedral Rock. As the sun comes up, a gentle mist appears, rising up off of the wet rock and wrapping itself around the towering and majestic sandstone formations. Time for a little daydream. Sedona Arizona USA.
Your entries need to be submitted by 8 AM Central European Time in order to be considered for the challenge with a description of approximately 30 to 50 words.

@vcclothing Australian Monday entry:
Uluru also known as Ayres Rock is a must when visiting Australia! This huge rock in the middle of the outback sure is a place to see with your own eyes. We walked around the rock and it took just under one and a half hours. That's one big rock!.

Sunset over the blue coast of France. I went for a walk at sunset near where I live and I took a picture of this succession of little creek. I come there often as it can also be a great surf spot.

View of the marina and some nice luxury yachts anchored there in Puerto Aventuras, a gated community of mostly expats located on Mexico´s Mayan Riviera, just a short drive from the touristy town of Playa del Carmen.
Morning at the wave. A unvorgettable expirience achieved only by luck of the Bingo basket. Our number was drawn so we have been allowed to visit The Wave.
Incredible shapes and colors. Stunning image.

Dragon turtle from the garden of light in Montreal, Canada. This autumn I went to the botanical garden of Montreal and walked down the illuminated path of the garden of light. This part of the path with the Chinese lanterns was fascinating.
The Iconic Malecon in Havana, Cuba
Havana's Malecon is one of the best places to watch Cuba's famous classic cars going by. The famous classic cars are mostly owned by the government; with an average salary of less than USD 20 per month most Cubans could not even afford the fuel. There are nearly no traffic jams in Cuba - no wonder considering that there are only roughly 17 cars per 1000 people. Apart from the classic cars are some Soviet cars around as well as an increasing number of Chinese cars.

Not as much history in North America, but we can still find architecture inspiration from around the world. So we get a mix of many culture, tradition and modern. Here is some European inspiration found in New York.
Yosemite National Park is in California’s Sierra Nevada mountains. It’s famed for its giant, ancient sequoia trees we did a four mile hike to Glacier point overlooking the half dome was spectacular views and awesome landscape a hike i would do in a heart beat again.
Grand Canyon National Park, in Arizona, is home to much of the immense Grand Canyon, with its layered bands of red rock revealing millions of years of geological history.
Grand Canyon is in the northwest corner of Arizona, close to the borders of Utah and Nevada.The beautiful Colorado River flows through the Grand Canyon giving it that extra beauty at the time we visited the Grand Canyon winter had just finished but we were lucky enough to still see a little snow.
