Hi Colin! Thanks for the postcard. I truly enjoyed looking at the newest waterfalls you've conquered. My favorites? I think I am going to have to say Silver Falls and Thunder Falls. Although you know, all waterfalls have a special place in my heart. :-) | 36waterfalls Thu Jun 18, 2009 11:19 UTC
Thanks for the card Colin! You're incredibly lucky to have so many beautiful waterfalls around (take me on a hike with you!!!). I've just hiked part of Spain, check out my Andalucia page ;-) (only tiny waterfalls though....) | willy_wonka Thu Jun 18, 2009 08:31 UTC
