#1 Share My World: Red Rock Scenic Byway by @sjarvie5

While my brother @jarvie was staying with me during his annual February trip to Arizona (Arizona in winter is beautiful with average temperatures in the 70s) one weekend he asked if I wanted to go to Sedona. They had recently gotten a lot of snow and really wanted to get pictures of Sedona in the snow. I grew up in the beautiful beach town of San Diego and in my heart I love the mountains and snow. I am so happy when I am in the snow so to see the beautiful red rocks of Sedona covered in a beautiful white blanket of snow.

#2 Laos – The Land of a Million Elephants by @digi-me

Laos is a country without access to the sea. It is a country with a long and complicated history. It became the most bombed country in history during the 1960 -70s. Even an agreement was signed in 1962 in Geneva to gaurantee neutrality and forbidding the presence of all foreign military personal. Long before that happend, the town Luang Prabang became the capital of the first Laotian kingdom of Lan Xang in 1353. Once elephants were so important that they formed the country's name.

#3 Walkabout Straya #6: Turn around... by @r00sj3

I wake up pretty nervous. This is the day that I'll be picking up my motorhome and I'll be driving that thing around the east coast of Australia for almost a month! I have never been in a motorhome, let alone driven one! I have had many small panic moments the past few days over this. Did I tell you that I'm not used to driving on the left?
