從天而降! (19-Sep-2005)

One day, this guy just pop up (more like pop down from the sky) in front of my windows. How could I miss the chance to take a pic.

In a minute or so, he landed on the beach in front of my home.

Then came his friend, who was gliding even closer to us. 2nd picture is a 100% crop from the first.

Beach Fun?! (16-May-2005)

Having a beach right in front of your home some times brings different kinds of fun. Besides the gliders above, sometime we would see photographers hiring models to take pictures on the beach. Like the one group in these pictures.

Beach Fun 2?! (23-10-2005)

And once I was walking on the beach, then see this group of guys and this girl. How could I resist taking a picture or two.

Beach Fun 2?! (23-10-2005)

But very soon, this guy was coming after me. Telling me that I have to pay to take pictures. (The group of guys chipped in to hire the models.)

This file was corrupted thus the funny effect. The guy in black wasn't very happy.

The girls, on the other hand, would smile to any and all cameras.

Birdwoman (8-Jan-2006)

We had a day trip to Macau and saw this in the then newly opened Fishmen Wharf.

澳門鉅記 (8-Jan-2006)

We went around the Macau touist spots, and I found this a bit strange - for some reason, this chain of snack shop 鉅記 would always have lots of customers inside, while the shops selling essentially the same snacks on the side would be almost empty.

Herd psychology? Good promotions? Or their snacks are really better than the others?

I visited Macao recently and their still seem to have a dominate position in the market.

Kowloon Park (21-3-2009)

We have not been to the Kowloon Park for many years. Today we decided to have a little walk there. I did not realized one of the old buildings in the park was converted into a little museum of Hong Kong heritage.

A newly wed is taken some bridal pictures in this nice building. And a creative arrangement for potted plants.
