Mokolodi Nature Reserve

Pilot Mountain is located in the middle to the northern regions of North Carolina. It looks kind of out of place because it just seems to jut out of the ground in the middle of nowhere. There are no other hills of any size even close to Pilot Mountain. …

Somehow, when I set out walking from my hotel near Termini, in Rome, Italy, toward Trevi Fountain, I expected a fountain; of course, I expected a nice fountain, as this is such a famous landmark and tourist attraction, but a fountain, none-the-less. What I didn’t expect was the grand …
