A day at the beach.
There were guests.

Canon EOS M50 with Voigtlander 35mm/1.4 Nokton SC
Finally gave in and bought that mirrorless camera because it will help me save money. Haha.
Because with a few adapters, I could use my various Takumars, Leica mount lenses and Canon EF/EFS lenses. I accidentally bought a 28mm Industar…
The Voigtlander and a few others allow for zone focusing.
Though I wasn’t fast enough sometimes.
Looking and thinking with some focus peaking.
Human, nature.
A homely arrangement.
We all need to find home.
Haiphong Road Temporary Market at Tsim Sha Tsui
Sonny boy has this great idea about trying out the beef ball noodles at Haiphong Road Temporary Market which has been there for 30 odd years.
So yes – I’ve an excuse to whip out the camera. The scene was quiet at first, with a guy eating quietly and a lady appearing on the left.
Then I looked again and the scene changed in a matter of minutes.
Such drama suddenly, quietly taking place.
The beef balls were great, with a tinge of citrus.
Cycling at Tai Mei Tuk
Sonny boy wanted to go cycling.
So we did.
There goes my plan to do nothing.
Plover Cove Reservoir is fantastic!
It’s nice stroll.
Great weather.
The dogs are out.
Lots of healthy walking.
Contemplation.
Some more walking.
A love story waiting to unfold.
Fun fun fun!
Wind, water, hills.
All we need.
HK Food Festival
Was at the HK Food Festival at the Convention and Exhibition Centre, because sonny boy is interested in food prep and stuff.
We tried the squid.
Were tempted by those.
Can’t carry those back.
A pensive moment.
Sonny boy had those rolled ice cream.
Peking duck!
We didn’t try those beef cubes either…
Cruise Day 4
Spent the entire day on board the ship.
Loved the whatchamacallit mini golf or croquet thing.
Trivia quiz.
Good to know we were safe.
The kids loved this.
Pool deck as psychedelic space.
Bye bye.
Cruise Day 3
Rise and shine!
To Keelung!
Wifey thought Eslite Bookstore at Taipei was the only place to go to, which I agreed.
What a place! It’s full of book lovers.
My kind of people.
This is what I do on a boring commute.
MRT and TRA back to Keelung.
Headed for the night market.
Fwah!
Are we hungry yet?
Check it out!
That’s the Keelung night market.
Loads of street food.
Street food, street hawkers, street photography.
Yummy.
There’s even a slice of Singapore/Malaysia/Indonesia!
I succumbed only to stinky tofu.
Back to the ship.
For a quiet beer.
Cruise Day 2
Rise and shine!
The view from our balcony.
To Kaohsiung!
We were here.
Tiger, dragon, tourist.
Tourist trap.
But the stuff was really yummy.
Shousan Hill.
Nice view.
Love River.
Everyday life.
Amphibious vehicle.
Sensuous city.
Cruise Day 1
On Royal Caribbean’s Voyages of the Sea, to Kaohsiung and Taipei (Keelung) from Hong Kong.
There were wonderful views at the top deck.
In a contemplative mood.
Lots to take in.
The restaurant queue was crazy at first.
But the restaurant was awesome.
Twin Peaks Hike
Hiking with folks from my church, ECC HK.
Decisions decisions.
Here. No, here.
What a view. Think about those property prices…
Are we lost?
Nope – we know where we are.
Here we go.
Can’t go wrong from here.
