Do you know your flowers? I decided the purple blossoms were in the nightshade family (Solanaceae) and not violets. And the greenish yellow were possibly an Umbelliferae or Apiaceae (Parsley/Carrot) that commonly are early bloomers.

wow, I have no clue about the flowers, but there are many in bloom over there now ...

Y’all go on awesome adventures! That scenery is beautiful. I’m going to have to say, though, some of those ladders are in my “No Thank You” category. I love the pictures of them, and i’d Like to see them from the bottom, but I don’t think I ‘d be doing any climbing on them.

Weren’t you a little nervous?

Dont worry, small children go through the ladders. They are long and steep, but it is not that horrible. There are many valleys, som contain less some more ladders, one can always find his taste. If you dedicate yourself into climb the ladder and dont do any selfies on the way, you are OK

Watch your step if you have to get up in the middle of the night! Beautiful countryside.

Me sitting at work watching the above video as my jaw is dropped open the entire time. Just spectacular! What a dream it must be waking up to those views from those hammocks! Thank you for sharing.
