My “Travel Challenge” On Day #3 Heads To The Beach! Malibu’s Love Affair With the Pacific Ocean Is Here!

Who’s Up For a Travel Challenge?

This incredible reflection reminds me that nature gives us incredible beauty every single day all around the world – we just need to take a moment to embrace it!

I really enjoy the ocean when it makes some noise and shows off a bit:

  3. These are great pictures, John. The one with Alex is really lovely. The rocks in the Malibu’s Paradise Cove look like crocodiles. I actually thought they were croc skeletons for a moment.
