Thanks for sharing. My dad did the same, and asked me to wear his dog tags for the rest of my life so I’ll always remember.

Danube Bike Journey – Day 3
Linz to Ardagger (~60km)
Total: ~145km

🌫️ Windy morning ride forest + river
🐗 Wild boar signs, but just hares in waving wheat
🏛️ Explored Enns (Austria’s oldest town!)
⛈️ Then came the rain.
🧺 Found shelter at a roadside farm stand
Rolled into Ardagger tired, hearts full.

The Schlögener Schlinge is a rare river loop formed as the Danube cuts through ancient granite! 🌀⛰️ One of Austria’s natural wonders, it shows just how patient water can be over millions of years. #DanubeFacts #SchlögenerSchlinge

Day 1 of our Danube ride is done! 🚴‍♂️ From Passau to Haibach (46km), with stops at Engelszell Abbey ⛪️, Café Sisi ☕️, and fabled signs with ghostly Donau legends 👻🏰. The wildflower fields were glowing, and the journey ends in Vienna! #DanubeBikeTour #CyclingEurope #DonauSteig

The Family That Glides Together
We spotted an orca family slicing through the Arctic waters—flashes of black and white against the deep blue. Graceful, eerie, unforgettable. A perfect moment of wild harmony.

Distant Encounter
Our first polar bear sighting on the ice floes—distant, majestic, surreal. The ship fell silent as we watched it pace the edge of the world.

The Walrus Club
Spotted a whole squad of walruses sunbathing on ice. Loud, lazy, magnificent. Peak Arctic vibes.

Snow in Motion
Caught reindeer running through a fjord in Svalbard. Snow drifting low to the ground—magical doesn’t cover it.

📍 South Luangwa, 🇿🇲

They run as one force,
Silent ghosts upon the plains,
Death comes without roar.

Lions feast, croc lies still,
Elephant sways, trunk outstretched—

📍 Kenya, 🇰🇪

Feathers ride the wind,
Silent hawks and eagles glide,

📍 Masai Mara, 🇰🇪

The ground shakes—thunder!
Hooves drum, hearts race, jaws snap tight…
Survival of the fittest.

🌍 The Great Migration—a million wildebeests surge across croc infested rivers @ their peril.

Sunfire on swift paws,

Inishmore, 🇮🇪

Stone walls guard the past,
Echoes dance by Poll na bPéist,
Atlantic’s embrace.

(🌊 Poll na bPéist, or “Wormhole,” is a perfect natural rectangle carved by the sea—once a Red Bull diving stage!)

Wisdom bound in faded script,
Where healers once learned.

Piazza Santo Stefano

Seven churches stand,
Echoes of pilgrims’ footsteps,

📍🇨🇳 The trek begins, haunting clouds surround us, an unspoken invitation to explore the sacred heights of Mt. Emei. As we ascend, mist weaves through ancient temples, whispers of history. Something ancient calls, a presence felt. At the summit, the soul listens. #Travel #GlobalNomads #travellovers

📍🇮🇩 Adrenaline fuels our ascent of Mt. Ijen. In darkness, we witness ethereal blue flames. As dawn breaks, the turquoise crater lake emerges, its colors shifting with the morning light. A journey culminating in a sunrise that unites earth and sky. #Travel #GlobalNomads #TravelLovers #Explore

📍🇬🇹 Lake Atitlán’s deep blue waters mirror the towering volcanoes, while vibrant villages pulse with tradition. In Antigua, time stands still amid colonial facades, cobbled streets, and pastel hues. A world where history and life blur into beauty. #Guatemala #Travel #GlobalNomads
