Photohunt: Copper

 I cheated, this is a copper coloured rosette.

ABC letter S: sportsman, Snakes and snake catcher

This is my very sports talented nephew Chai Song Lip. The sports writers dubbed him the leaping lizard. Once he won the Sportsman of the year. His forte was triple jump. I am a very proud aunt.


Song Lip lives in sunny Australia. One day, a snake visited his garage.

Song Lip is helping the snake catcher.


The snake catcher caught the snake, and took it away in a sack. She released it in the bush. This is for my save the world theme.

mondaymellowyellows: surfing

The water was cold in the Autumn Gold Coast. I didn't go for a swim. I prefer summer where one can do paddle surfing and don't have to get wet.
