Bora Bora, the island in the middle of the Pacific, was called by many as the most beautiful place on Earth. The island is a mixture of shades of blue, from azure to dark blue of the ocean after the barrier reefs, all surrounding emerald mostly conferred by abundant vegetation of the Otemanu volcano.

The island of volcanic origin, Bora Bora, is actually a complex of small islands, formed along a barrier reef around the main island.
Bora Bora is the main favorite destination for honeymoon and also a visit in family which will be a unique experience.

Bora Bora is part of the French Polynesia and is located to the tropics, near Tahiti, from where air you can arrive in about 45 minutes. One trip here from Romania for example takes about 24 hours, and requires a stop somewhere in the United States of America.

Bora Bora Island, located in the middle of the Pacific Ocean 225km northwest of Tahiti, has 6.5 kilometers long and 4 kilometers wide. Bora Bora is an island of volcanic origin which was formed about 3 million years ago.

The climate is tropical, pleasant at any time of year, sunrise and sunset of the sun are impressive, and water’s clarity crosses the limit. Certainly, this would be one of the most splendid holiday ever happened to any of us. Those who had the opportunity to visit this land remained with a strong nostalgia even if this was just a visit, but it remained in memory the most beautiful place on earth, the so called Heaven on Earth.

In 1977 this island was named by Captain James Cook, Bola Bola which means “First Born”, and then, after the Americans arrived, this place was named Bora Bora, an island which is now visited by people from the most remote corners of the world.

On the eastern shore of Sicily are rising three large rocks, caressed by the waves. They have volcanic origin and they don’t seem to be like the other rocky formations from the shore. Rocks, they are said to have been thrown by a monster in the footsteps of Odysseus’s ship, the hero of the Trojan wars hero of the Greek mythology.
Homer, the Greek poet of the seventh century before Christ said in Odyssey that the hero of Ithaca and his comrades were held in Sicily by some giant man eaters. Their leader was Polifem more hideous than the others because he had only one eye, sitting in the middle of the crowd. While Polifem was sleeping, Odysseus and the others have sharp  a piece of olive wood, then they flushed into the fire and burning, stuck it into the only eye of the monster, then they fled to the ship with which they came.

Blind and tormented by pain, Polifem tore rocks from the mountains coast and threw them on the tracks of the fugitives. He did not hit them, but even today boulders are still being there where he throw, thing which still remember the terrible power of the monster.
As for the legend’s truth, if we look carefully to the inside of the island at about 20 km, we can see the conical tip of the Etna volcano. Its single crater, blind and deep, is like the monster’s eye.
Not once, but many times during the centuries Etna has demonstrated its ability to spout boulders on large and long distances, and it still gives today such dramatic proofs of its anger from depths.
Its eruptions are fed by a reservoir of lava, of 30 km long and 4 km deep, located under the mountains and fed by huge quantities of molten material filled with gas, located in the depths of the Earth. You might think that place is not at all favorable for human settlements. However, the Etna slopes makes one of the most densely populated regions of Sicily. The rivers of lava that flow are slow and not very numerous, rarely killing someone. People collect even five harvests of vegetables per year and fruits are growing in abundance.

Beyond the gray plains of pebble, in northwestern South Africa, land is slightly inclined to lay open one of the timeless masterpieces of nature: a large  old sand appearing as a baked apricot, which stretches like forever. This is the Kalahari, a vast territory on the African plateau. Surreal beautiful in its immensity, prehistoric culture and structure, the Kalahari Desert covers almost the whole Bostwana, continuing to the west in Namibia and north in Angola, Zambia, Zimbabwe. People who live here call it Kgalagadi, meaning “wilderness” – a region so vast, so impenetrable, as it hides secrets of ancient civilizations that disappeared a long time ago. Its sands are home and hunting territory of the oldest populations in the world, the tribes of Bushmen or San, who live today as they did 25,000 years ago. Their amazing adaptations in scorching heat, to the lack of the water and insufficient food, allowed people to survive where others would surely not. Although there is currently no longer than a few thousand bushmen in the Kalahari , their ancestors have left behind them numerous paintings in caves and on rocks in the region. For example in caves and on cliffs of the Tsodilo Hills, in the north-western desert, there are no fewer than 2750 pictures in 200 sites. These subjects vary from simple geometric designs to various groups of people and animals.
Even today, large groups can be seen as marching along the dried  rivers of Auob and Nossob, throwing gold dust in the air. Here, lions are often hidden under the foliage of trees, waiting for night to start hunting.

Innumerable tributaries feed the Congo river along the arc of a circle which is being crossed from its sources, to the border between Zambia and Democratic Republic of the Congo, until flowing into the Atlantic. On the road or 4700 km, the river winds through dense jungle and mangrove forests accumulating so much power that flows into the sea 41,700 tons of water per second, its  debit being exceeded only by the Amazon’s one.
When the river estuary was discovered, in 1482, by the portuguese explorer Diogo Cao, he could not cross the cataracts upstream of the river mouth, today named Livingstone Falls, so the river has remained unexplored for nearly 400 years. For Europeans of the nineteenth century, this area was known as the “darkest Africa”.
The upper Congo River is partially navigable. Initially, it flows to the north through a narrow, steep and rocky gorge, then winds through swamps covered by reeds and flowing into Lake Kisa, a paradise of egrets and seagulls, but the fishermen in the area. Further, navigable portions alternates with thresholds before Nyangwe, where the river enters into the dark jungle which frightened Livingstone in 1871, preventing him from going forward to the north. The river crosses 7 waterfalls along the 90 km, with the largest flow of water in the world, approximately 166,850 tonnes per second.

Son Duke sold the Palace in 1761 to George III and was renamed the “Queen’s House” in 1744 because Queen Charlotte lived there. When the Palace has passed into the possession of George IV in 1820, Nash was hired to redecorate the Palace. The main part was kept but a new wing of flats was built in the west, garden. Since 1837, when Queen Victoria was established at the residence in Buckingham Palace, a lot of changes took place. One of the most important changes was the removal of huge portions of marble which today is found in the area called Tyburn. Nowadays, the Buckingham Palace is used not only as a residence for the Queen and Duke of Edinburgh but also for the administrative affairs of the monarchical institution.
