I'm back today from the weekend, and will tonight start playing catch up with comments and photos.
Being off line was a break, and an interruption for this girl, who needed it. Too obsessed with what's going on in my country and needed a break to clear my head and gear up for resistance to what I see as harmful.
Hope you are all well, and l'm looking forward to getting back in touch..
Penelope was watching, with fascination, the wonderful Turkish film about street cats, Kedi, when I rudely interrupted her. She normally finds films boring, but since this one featured truly interesting actors, she was mesmerized.
I have no idea what was going on here, and certainly did not want to interrupt this man ...
Note: I chose this as my "photo of the day" for Oct 5, 2015.
**********************************
I spent the first two weeks of September 2015 on a river cruise down the Rhine River, with daily visits to ancient (German) castles and small (German) villages along the way. Our trip culminated in Berlin (pictures forthcoming over the next week or so), where we stayed in a terrific hotel in what was once East Berlin … but was no longer distinguishable from any other part of Berlin …
Anyway, I thought it might be helpful to know a few German words and phrases besides what little I remembered from four years of high-school German, taken a lifetime ago… so I signed up for a one-week intensive one-on-one German class at the Berlitz school in mid-town Manhattan. I’m not sure how much I really learned, and I doubt that I’ll remember very much at all in a month or two … but I do think it was a worthwhile exercise.
The “exercise” involved daily trips, via subway, from Manhattan's Upper West Side to the IRT station at 50th Street and Seventh Avenue — from which I walked a couple blocks east to the Berlitz location near Rockefeller Center. When the class was over each day, I retraced my steps to get back home.
Naturally, I had my camera with me while I made this daily journey; and I couldn’t help snapping a few photos along the way. Most of the people that I saw were tourists … but there were a few “native” New Yorkers, and a few others of dubious origin.
Not the greatest photos in the world, I’m sure … but it shows you another “slice of life” in the Big Apple.

Thank you very much for your comments and faves, regretfully, I am finding it increasingly difficult to reply to your comments, because of my very limited time on the internet, due to constant power interruptions in South Africa. I do read and appreciate every one of them, however! Thanks again!!
An American Avocet looked up at me as if I'd interrupted his foraging. To be fair, I probably did interrupt with all my clicking
The Scarlet Sails is a celebration in St. Petersburg, the most massive and famous public event during the White Nights Festival every summer. The tradition is highly popular for its spectacular fireworks, numerous music concerts and a massive water show.
This tradition began in 1968, when several Leningrad schools united to celebrate the end of the school year in connection with the symbolism of the popular 1922 children's book Scarlet Sails by Alexander Grin. During the first celebration, a brigantine with scarlet sails sailed along the English Embankment and the Admiralty Embankment towards the Winter Palace. The 1961 release of the film Scarlet Sails boosted the popularity both of the book and of the tradition.
Although there existed an early draft version of the Scarlet Sails poem, which action was staged at post-revolutionary Petrograd (St. Petersburg's russificated name before renaming to Leningrad in 1924), the author eventually put its action to a fictional country, thus making his work just a symbolic story of an all-conquering, lofty dream with no rusty revolutionary propaganda.
As a symbol of fulfilling child's dream to be adult and free from "schools and rules" the brigantine with scarlet sails turned to be an emblem of transition to a new wishfully beautiful adult life upon school-graduation. The tradition interrupted in later Soviet period, but was again reborn since 2005, when St. Petersburg authorities realized the tourist-attracting potential of the event.

I interrupted the series for a while for I realised that I hadn't done justice to the path itself. Scanning and editing of newly included pictures took me a while.
It is rather wild since it doesn't get much care. Once, a fallen tree was blocking the path and yet it was weeks before it was removed.
But one image is worth a thousand words. Let us see...

I soon got a scolding after this photo was taken..

This red-tailed hawk had a rabbit dinner but wasn't able to enjoy it—chased from one perch by a red-winged blackbird, it flew to a power pole, where it was scolded and harassed by a pair of blue jays, and then a male Bulllock's oriole joined the attack. Even after the hawk flew away with its rabbit, I could hear continued clamor from wherever the hawk had moved to!
