"IMVUBU"




This is the vessel IMVUBU (top). Kathleen and I have been "boat sitting" while our friend Mark is away visiting family and friends in South Africa. The two bottom photos depict our view from our "dinner table" which is located on the back deck. If you "squint" at the bottom photo you can see the IFC building (K's office tower) and "central" Hong Kong in the distant background. Notice the air pollution that hovers over HK... unfortunately, squinting is not necessary.
This marina is located in Discovery Bay on Lantau Island.
Thank you Mark!

PAPER SNOW


I loaded Kathleen's umbrella up with a half pound of white confetti the other day and placed it by the front door and waited for rain. A couple of days later the rain arrived. When she left our flat with her umbrella in hand, I quickly grabbed my camera and positioned myself in the open window 25 floors up. I watched as she exited the building and headed to the corner to hail a cab. When she reached her cab hailing destination she opened her "protection" and alas a small blizzard covered her. I have to entertain myself somehow... :).
