Amazing pics! Especially the one with the mountains rising out of the clouds! Very different from how I picture Indonesia (never having been in that part of the world, sadly).
Very, very wonderful places, so...we can see the power of creation by the Havenly Father!
Kita patut bersyukur karena diberikan alam yang begitu indah dan mempesona.
