Socotra Island - Who Knew!?

You could have knocked me over with a feather.  Really.  If someone told me I had stumbled over a movie set portraying a world in some other galaxy, I would have believed it.  Can there possibly be a Dragon Blood Tree that oozes red liquid when it's bark is cut?  Apparently so.  It's in the Indian Ocean, just east Yemen.

Among other surprises, this is a World Heritage Site.  Hundreds of flora and fauna exist here and nowhere else.  What a world we live in!

Here are some pictures to get you started.  You will want to explore this wonderful land.  I wonder if I'll ever be able to visit here in my lifetime.  Is there anyone out there who has been here?
