Unnamed Falls #1, Raymondskill Area, Pennsylvania
A waterfall near Raymondskill Falls in May 2019 In certain places, there can be a number of different waterfalls…so many so that people don’t know what to do with them all. They may not put them on a map or name them. Raymondskill Creek is one of those areas. I’ve got six waterfalls on the map, though the main focus is impressive falls Raymondskill Falls. I’ve posted about the other five…

Any snippet please? Preferably a flashback or something from Quaritch and Spider's trip
Sure!
*************************************************************
 They arrived in New Zealand in the afternoon. After leaving Brown at the airfield, they went to a nice restaurant for an early dinner where they tried some delicious local delicacies. Later they ran to the grocery store to buy enough food for the next few days of sailing and hiking. They rented their boat, setting sail an hour before sunset, floating down Milford Sound as the sun sank over the horizon, its light glittering off the water, the various shades of pink, purple, and orange in the sky looking absolutely mesmerizing against the endless open expanse of mountain ranges. When the moon came out and the heavens opened up blanketing their world in billions of stars, father and son simply laid out on the deck of their boat, gazing up in reverent silence. 
    They could have stayed out there all night but unfortunately the fatigue from their two days of constant travel caught up to them, forcing them to move below deck to a small shared bedroom. There was only one bed but neither minded. Pa wrapped an arm around Miles holding him securely against his chest, bringing his other hand up to card through his son’s curls. Miles had still been buzzing from the excitement of the day when he’d laid down but with his father steadily stroking his hair, and the rhythmic rocking of the boat, he relaxed, falling asleep in moments. 
     Miles woke the next morning to find the room deserted, feeling the boat moving underneath him. He moved to the top deck, breathing in crisp clean air, staring out in utter awe of his surroundings. Green mountain ranges surrounded them, each housing a forest of its own, the foliage so large and dense that it hung over the rock formations, close enough for him to touch from his spot on the sound. The deep blue water peacefully rocked their vessel, birds calling to each other overhead. Miles still couldn’t believe that he was really here. That his father had taken him here. 
      “Mornin’ son,” Pa called from the steering wheel. Miles gave his father a sleepy smile. “Go grab yourself some breakfast. We got a big day ahead.” He did as told, settling into the boat’s gallery as he munched on an apple and dry cereal, peacefully watching nature as they drifted by. 
   He heard it before he saw it. A waterfall. The first of two that they’d be seeing on their boating excursion. Miles sprang to his feet, rushing over to the ship’s railing to get as close as possible as they approached. Mist from the rushing water clung to him, cooling his skin. He faintly felt the rumble of the boat's engine cut under his feet, his father joining him. Matching content smiles graced their faces as they took it all in. This is real, Miles thought, Pa really kept his word. Miles hadn’t needed this trip to change his opinions of his father. Pa was a good honest man, who loved and cared for him unconditionally. He had never lied to him and so he’d had no reason to doubt that this day would eventually come but still. It was all just so amazing.    Miles playfully bumped his father’s shoulder with his own, earning a little huff of a laugh and large grin in response. Pa slung an arm around him, pulling him in close. They stayed like that as they watched their surroundings drift by, their boat gently propelled down the water by the force of the waterfall.

Coucou tout le monde ! C'est une journée bien remplie que j'ai eue aujourd'hui, je m'endors heureuse
Tumblr media
Après un réveil très très frais, puisque contrairement à ce que la météo m'indiquait hier soir (6-8° dans la nuit, tranquille), l'eau avait GELÉ dans mon évier (dans la voiture donc hein), je suis partie prendre l'air autour du lagon de Sainte Anne (nom étrange pour un petit lac), dont je n'attendais honnêtement pas grand chose ...
Tumblr media
J'adore me tromper ! Le lac était encore gelé d'un côté, et fondait en créant des petites vagues de fumées splendides. Une ambiance tout à fait mystique pour commencer la journée !
Tumblr media
J'ai ensuite fait un arrêt sur une jolie plage de "sable" noir, dont je suis assez curieuse de comprendre l'origine... Je veux dire, origine volcanique, certes, mais pourquoi cette plage spécifiquement et pas toutes ses copines voisines ? Quelle qu'en soit la raison, c'était très sympa, surtout avec cette luminosité un peu étrange
Tumblr media
Je pars ensuite pour la ville de Kaikoura, que j'avais hésité à intégrer dans ce petit tour de l'île... C'aurait été une erreur grossière. La péninsule attachée est encore en cours de création, elle continue de monter tous les ans (au rythme effréné de 3mm/an, Sisi), et donne des reliefs splendides sur les côtes !
Tumblr media
C'est terriblement dur à rendre en photo, mais le coin est vraiment majestueux.
Tumblr media
Bientôt, un fumet familier m'assaille les naseaux... Ça ne trompe pas, il y a de l'otarie dans le coin !
Tumblr media
En fait, il y a une colonie énorme qui est installée là, ils doivent être des centaines ! Et il y a des bébés partout, c'est absolument adorable 🥰
Tumblr media
Puisque je m'ennuie (lol), je décide ensuite d'aller grimper une nouvelle montagne pour avoir un joli panorama de la région. Le temps est magnifique, je me cale au point d'observation pour bouquiner, ça fait du bien ! (J'ai les mollets qui tirent, je crois qu'ils veulent un break haha)
Tumblr media
J'ai croisé sur la balade en bord de mer deux français avec qui j'avais bien accroché à Milford sound, on a bien papoté, et on a décidé de se retrouver le soir pour boire un verre et partager un repas. C'était une soirée vraiment très sympa ! (Et qu'est ce que c'était bon ! Pommes de terre cuites dans la graisse de canard et poitrine de porc, miam miam miam)
Tumblr media
Par contre je suis dégoûtée : ils ont fait la balade dans l'autre sens par rapport à moi, et ils ont vu des pingouins au départ (partis à mon arrivée) et une baleine à la fin (pas encore là à mon départ). Argh ! Peut être demain, le temps devrait se gâter, on verra si j'ai la chance d'apercevoir une baleine quand même 🤗

Te Anau - du 13 au 15 avril
Ouf, le soleil se lève enfin sur la route ( et ça fait du bien... c'est qu'on a plus l'habitude, nous!). Nous sommes sur la route vers Te Anau, petite ville aux portes des plus emblématiques fjords de la province du Fjordland: le Milford Sound et le Doubtful Sound. Ici, on nous dit avec fierté qu'il s'agit du plus grand et du plus sauvage des parcs nationaux de Nouvelle Zélande (bon, visiblement, la taille compte, ici!).
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
Nous visitons le premier le lendemain de notre arrivée. Nous sommes sans voix devant la succession de vallée qui jalonnent la route jusqu'au Milford Sound. Geoff, notre guide pour la journée, connaît les bons spots et ne tarit pas d'explications passionnantes sur cette région qu'il affectionne clairement. Nous sommes impressionnés par les gorges vertigineuses dont la hauteur est sublimée par des lacs dont le calme reflète sans trouble les parois environnantes. La croisière au sein du fjord est tout aussi magique: nous croisons phoques et dauphins, venus jouer avec les quelques bateaux présents. L'arrivée dans la mer de Tasman et ses remous nous font prendre conscience du calme qui règne au sein de fjord...
Le lendemain est consacré au Doubtful Sound. Nous comprenons rapidement que côté organisation, ce sera "deux salles, deux ambiances" par rapport à la veille. Après avoir passé la journée au sein d'un petit groupe d'une dizaine de personnes, nous nous retrouvons avec une centaine de touristes, tous dirigés avec tact à travers, bus et bateaux... La croisière au milieu des versants majestueux du fjord nous font vite oublier les autres passagers. Une deuxième claque après celle de la veille (et là, on comprend la fierté des locaux). Il règne ici un calme et une sérénité que rien ne perturbe et qui nous envahit progressivement.
Le retour se fait dans une ambiance bien plus calme ( le bercement des flots ayant fait somnoler certains 😴...). A peine rentrés sur Te Anau, nous reprenons la route vers notre prochaine étape avant les glaciers : Kingston!

Day 12 - 9 days of riding - 500 miles of 1300 completed.
How many times can you cross the same river? Seven for us over the last 2 days. Our Adventure Cycling maps offer up the best routes however, sometimes Mother Nature forces you to cross the same bridge twice…
Up and out of camp by 9am today. I’ll swear I’m carrying more stuff than yesterday. Regardless, we had a pleasant start, rolling across the river into Milford, NJ. then north-ish along the Delaware.
Tumblr media
Looking into Milford after our first river crossing.
Most of the river roads were narrow and had light car traffic. The problem was that they either ran parallel to the bluffs or over them. We had at least a half dozen tough climbs plus headwinds throughout the day. Nonetheless, the scenery was beautiful.
Tumblr media
All in a days work
Tumblr media
Just pushing uphill.
About 18 miles into our day we rode into Philipsburg, NJ in the hopes of finding a coffee shop. Unfortunately, we had no luck. We could have crossed the river (twice) and gone into Easton, PA to find one but we decided against it.
Tumblr media
Looking into Easton from Philipsburg. Confluence of Lehigh and Delaware.
After a short pop tart break, we hit the road for at lunch spot, target Belivere, NJ. Uncle Bucks Diner worked out well. We consumed mass quantities and then were told that the road ahead of us had multiple detours due to landslides and washouts.
Tumblr media
Creek alongside Bucks.
Sure enough, that was true. Immediately after we crossed the river we saw that our road was closed. We backtracked. That’s two river crossings. Ultimately, we ended up on NJ route 46. Yes, NJ family, 46. However it’s very civilized at this end of the state. One lane in each direction, wide shoulders, 50 mph, fewer vehicles.
Tumblr media
Not-so-friendly Rt 46 roadside stand.
Six or seven miles later, after some treacherous convolutions at a major intersection, we crossed back into PA and rode towards the Delaware Water Gap until we came to another Road Closed sign. Screw it, we rode forward. Fortunately, the road crew let us by and, obviously, the road was passable.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Delaware Water Gap views.
The best part was that we were the only vehicles on the road and we got spectacular views of the Gap. And we got to ride over the river one more time to get back to NJ. After another 3 miles of up and down riding we finally reached our campground for the night. This time a state campground with no Nomadland RVs and with beautiful views of the river.
Tumblr media
Campsite view.
Showers, diner, a good charge on our electronics, a little taste of bourbon, Kishi Bashi… bedtime.
Cheers!
Today’s potent potable:

February 5th to 11th
✴️I am trying to improve my research skills, which I still struggle with, to be honest. So, I had to translate it into my language, which makes sense to me.
✴️Research simply means "finding answers" to a question.
✴️I went to the library to get 2 books on oil a d acrylic painting.
✴️I took pictures on just the simple basics that will help me in the future as an artist, in the painting aspect, whether actual painting or digital painting.
✴️I also did a 10km charity walk on Sunday for Milford Hospice as they looked after my grandmother for 20 years before her passing in 2007. It was my way to say thanks to them for minding her.
✴️I took a simple picture of the walk to show that everyone goes at different paces, whether if they run fast or walk slow. This applies as well to my college work as I prefer to do it at a very slow and sustainable pa e for ny own mental wellbeing.
