This could have been easily called ironic (name a country or local) as every place I have ever been has its' own ironies. However, these are local and I think pretty telling ….
-
the tea boil by the side of the road….
and the traffic go by….

Unbeknownst to Dar, I am about to spill my entire coffee (on my jeans) and he will be required to gather copious amounts of TP from the restroom a few cars down in order to assist me…..ahhh the bliss of not knowing and being able to look forward to quietly enjoying a cappuccino with an extra shot!
The best part was avoiding the stares of the folks who were sitting behind us as the coffee slowly made its way through the car during our 30 min ride back….

Dar and I finally made it in to the city after our adventure with medicine. Headed to the Metropolitan Museum of Art and this place ROCKS! From 5th century eyeballs for statues to a reminder for holy men that they too will die (medieval ivory rosary)…so much to do and WAY too little time.Seriously, a trip to NYC is worth it just to see this place….here are some of my favorites…..

Had a day to check out the city…..and had to document the fact we made it in…

Flew to NYC for a few days to visit with family and had a great time….on the second day we were there, a snow storm blanketed the place (I am sure the natives would say it was a light dusting). We had a great time fooling around and after a bit of sledding, I trudged off around the hood to snap a few pictures.

you accomplish 4 things:
1 – Keep them busy as they run around asking everyone to have their picture taken2 – Get an interesting perspective3 – They learn how to use a point and shoot, and4 – With this particular preschooler….you get Really Good Photos!Just in case you were wondering….no folks, I am not that short – I was sitting down …. REALLY!Thanks Sky Man for all your help taking the pictures on Christmas Day!

So this is a really special place for all of us. We decided to head up there for two days while we were all at home.
The natural beauty here is breathtaking. We all had a great time together and were very thankful we could all be there together.

If your arms and legs were cut off and your were thrown into the ocean to drown???
It happens to 100 MILLION of your fellow creatures EVERY YEAR!!Sharks – one of the most beautiful, elegant and not to mention one of the OLDEST living creatures on this planet are being killed barbarically and hunted to extinction so people can have some soup??? Shark populations WORLDWIDE are in serious decline and given how long they take to mature and reproduce….who knows if they will bounce back.Sadly – as beautiful is Kerela is – I also saw this on a side street. Apparently, the fisherman who lived in the house needed a little extra cash. Tragically, there are way too many folks in Asia who are willing to pay…..This cause is near and dear to me – if you want to do something about it too, go here…..LINK
