Nature's glory
Today was a perfect day.
In the morning, the tide was full and the sea a crisp, dark blue dotted with tiny wind-blown peaks. It appeared to swell and sway against the golden strip of sand and red cliffs opposite.
Tonight a bright, new moon rode high with Venus, huge in counterpoint, set together into a sky of shadowed blue taffeta.

The Darwin lifestyle was epitomised by the unique transport methods glimpsed outside the primary school at 'going home time' today. One mother rode a tandem made up of a child's bike welded behind adult one - only mum was pedalling, but they both looked happy.
A second mother had a standard toddler seat on the rear of her bike, which was towing a small ,enclosed trailer containing the two other children .
The photographic observation is of a very small and skinny kitten, taken in a Balinese village.

"I've been to Bali too"
Why, when they showed such daily devotion to their gods, was their survival dependent on callous tourist dollars?
It seemed unfair, as if all that effort and goodness of spirit should bring greater prosperity.

She had a notion if she had remembered all the outstanding lines from all the books she'd read in her life, she'd be able to turn them into a marketable novel . Not having collected them, she contented herself with figuring how many novels that might have been and came up with around 8,000.
