Chugging along with beats of my heart,
Tugging its strings with a long, shrill whistle.
It pulls away, into a sunset,
Where my ears cannot hear its lonely tune.
Depth over distance every time, my dear
And this tree of ours may grow tall in the woods
But it's the roots that will bind us here
To the ground
Depth over distance was all I asked of you
And I may be foolish to fall as I do
Still there's strength in the blindness you fear
If you're coming too
If you're coming too
Hold on, wait until that lone sun
Breaks from the arms of the Lord
Hold on, though we may be too young
To know this ride we're on
Depth over distance was all I asked of you
And everybody round here's acting like a stone
Still there's things I'd do, darling, I'd go blind for you
If you let grow sometimes, let it grow sometimes, let it grow
Just let it grow sometimes
Hold on, wait until that lone sun
Breaks from the arms of the Lord
Hold on, though we may be too young
To know this ride we're on
Hold on, though we may be too young
To know this ride we're on
Depth over distance every time, my dear,
And I may be foolish to fall as I do
Still there's strength in the blindness you fear
If you're coming too, hmm
If you're coming too
Hold on, wait until that lone sun
Breaks from the arms of the Lord
Hold on, though we may be too young
To know this ride we're on
To know this ride we're on
To know this ride we're on

Sieben kecke Schnirkelschnecken
saßen einst auf einem Stecken,
machten dort auf ihrem Sitze
kecke Schnirkelschneckenwitze.
Lachten alle so:
"Ho, ho, ho, ho, ho!"
Doch vor lauter Ho-ho-Lachen,
Schnirkelschneckenwitze-Machen,
fielen sie von ihrem Stecken:
alle sieben Schnirkelschnecken.
Liegen alle da.
Ha, ha, ha, ha, ha!

Chinese New Year was upon Bangkok and a romantic, rose-laden tunnel was erected in front of Siam Paragon. I caught this unlikely couple sharing a moment in the tunnel, knowingly or not.
In the distance a modern cargo ship decidedly not the Pinta, which together with the Niña and the Santa Maria formed the fleet of Christopher Columbus (1451-1506) on his first voyage to the 'New' World. In 1492, shortly after setting out from Cádiz, the Pinta developed rudder problems which could only be repaired in a harbor. Columbus thus landed his tiny fleet of caravels at Las Palmas. Soon repairs were made and after loading supplies they were on their way to the 'new' continent. It is said that the house in which Columbus resided in Las Palmas was later incorporated into the Governor's palace (see inset) which is now a museum devoted to him and his voyages of discovery. It's located right next to the Cathedral, which was built around 1500 so Columbus wouldn't have seen it.
Building of the Cathedral began in earnest after the defeat of the enemies of Spain who attempted to take Gran Canaria. Famous in those attempts was Dutch admiral Pieter van der Does (1462-1599) whose men took Las Palmas for a few days in July 1499 but were then driven away. Van der Does died of his wounds on the coast of Africa. It was humorous this morning in the botanical garden here to hear a teacher enthusiastically relating that history to his wards. When he announced Van der Does's defeat an applaus and 'olés' rang out.
The view is of the cupola of Santa Ana from one of its towers.
This shot taken on my summer holiday in January, 2002 with my little Canon 2.1 Mp point and shoot camera. A beach that disappeared into the distance was like a dream come true back in those days. Retirement was my best career move ever, now I have more beaches than I could ever dream of.
