Pink lakes, a sweet mystery!

Monday is my least favorite day of the week, waking up early and realizing the weekend is over. To make this Monday morning less hard to deal with, I figured I’d give myself something to look forward to and brighten up my day. I went ahead and made a Pinterest moodboard of places to visit and stumbled upon an incredible picture of a bubble gum pink lake.

First I thought that is was some sort of art project, like Christo has done, but after searching on the internet I found that pink lakes are true wonders of nature. There are only a few around the globe, with three lakes in Australia: Pink lake, Lake Hillier and the Hutt Lagoon. Scientists have studied samples of the water and found that it’s hyper-saline, contains a high concentration of salt but remain unable to explain why the water is pink. I would call it a sweet mystery.
