These are some pics of where we went on our honeymoon, aren’t they beautiful? I have been nostalgic lately and felt like finding pictures of the beautiful lakes. The natural color of the lakes is this intense blue, the minerals from the melted glaciers feeding them give them that color. I think if I didn’t [...]

I know this picture is completely random but one of my students, Jing Jing, told me the story that this picture symbolizes and I thought it was so random and beautiful.
