Yosemity Falls, CA, USA. Daniel Ahlberg. June 22, 2013

From their Californian Road Trip, Daniel Ahlberg and family sends us this beautiful picture from Yosemite Falls(earlier reports here, here and here). Yosemite Falls apprears to be one of the worlds more impressive natural fenomena as it is the sixth (or seventh) highest water fall in the world and the highest in North America.

This road trip is turning out to an expedition of records featuring the hottest place on Earth, the tree with the largest volume on Earth and the highest water fall in North America.

Thank you for the beautiful image. We wish you fair winds on your ongoing expedition Daniel and family and look forward to your next report, record or not. 🙂

An update from the Alberg family road trip (earlier report here) through California brings us this report from Sequoia National Park. Jees, aren’t those sequoia trees big! Imagine the size of the red house one could build with logs from those trees. But who’s this general? The sequoia ranger? At HQ we always believed the Sherman was a tank but it turns out that in this instance he is a tree and the tree with the worlds largest volume. The trunk alone is estimated to have a volume of 1500 cubic meters (wikipedia) .

Thank you Daniel for the beautiful pictures of the impressive trees. We wish you fair winds for your ongoing adventure and look forward to more reports from your road trip.

Sini Merikallio in Finland is breaking new grounds with these absolutely stunning pictures of beautiful animals posing with the house. Sini writes:

Dessa bilder är från Skomarböle, Mörskom, Finland. Den bruna hästen är en finnhäst, Lillin-Tyttö och hundarna är labradorerna Emmi (svart) och Eevi (ljus).

Or in English:

These pictures are from Skomarböle, Mörskom, Finland. The brown horse is a finnhorse Lillin-Tyttö and the dogs are the labradores Emmi (black) and Eevi (blonde)

Be sure to check out these and more images together with Sinis own comments on her flickr Moonhouse-page.

At HQ we had never thought about the house in the Animal Kingdom but presented with this expedition we are again in awe of the creativity of Sini and the ideas of the Moonhouse Explorers. In recognition of Sinis expedition to Finland and the Animal Kingdom, Moonhouse #2.14 will henceforth be known as #2.14 – The Animal Kingdom. We congratulate Sini on her successful expedition and wish her fair wind on her coming adventures. Rumour has it that Sini already has plans for the house, the unfolding of which we look forward to with great interest.
