Fraser Island - the deadliest place on Earth. The most venomous snakes and spiders in the world are found on Fraser Island, off the Eastern coast of Australia. There are dingos on the island as well. Fraser Island is a World Heritage Site and is made entirely of sand. Despite this, a subtropical rainforest is able to grow and thrive on the island. There are several options for visitors to Fraser Island. You can camp on the island, or day tours are offered from Hervey Bay and Rainbow Beach. I took a day tour that showed visitors who were short on time all there is to see on the island. It was cool because you travel in a 4WD all-terrain vehicle that could go in the ocean as well as on land. I really liked when we got to go down the beach into the ocean. Riding through the water along the beach in the 4WD all-terrain vehicle We walked through the subtropical rainforest. Lots of vegetation to see, which is cool because it is all growing on sand.

When I was in Scotland, I got to visit a couple of faerie glens. Very interesting... The first was at Cloody Wells. This was an interesting experience. Traditionally people leave offerings for faeries so that their wishes are granted. In Cloody Wells, people left all sorts of un-traditional offerings. These included socks (not a pair, just one sock), t-shirts, bandanas, and panties. The "offerings" are hung all over the branches of the trees in the glen. "Offerings" at the Cloody Wells Faerie Glen The second faerie glen was a bit more "normal". It was near the western coast of the Isle of Skye. This one had a faerie castle that visitors can hike up to the top. Also, the "offerings" were more traditional: coins, jewelry, trinkets. Faerie Castle Ewen, Glen Uig, Isle of Skye Traditional "offerings" If you get a chance, it is very interesting to visit Scotland - go see the faerie glens! Make an offering and a wish! ~Angi
