Java Sparrows are the sweetest birds just loaded with personality. I know young birds are juveniles but when it comes to these sweeties it is Baby Java :)
Java Sparrow: Originally native to Java and Bali in Indonesia, and possibly Madura, this sparrow has been introduced and is established in many parts of the world, from Asia to Australia, Africa and North America. Inhabits open woodlands, often bordering cultivated areas, and is also found in mangroves, grassland, towns and villages, and in both coastal and inland areas.

When I am travelling to different places in the country, I enjoy seeking out specialty coffee shops. It's where you meet interesting people and with a good cup of coffee, I take time to get to know them a bit.

I spotted this oldtimer somewere in Central Java, although most cars are very old, cars like these are very very rare in that region.
Noted roadside attraction in Tacoma. It's a bar now and thus closed in the morning so we had to get our morning coffee elsewhere. It's apparently a great place to visit, and the building dates to 1927 or maybe 1930.

One of the nice things about Seattle is its ready supply of coffee. I'm not fond of Starbucks, though (if one isn't going to load up on a sugary, creamy, calorie-laden drink, the plain black coffee they serve tastes roasted and burnt into oblivion). And did you know that there's actually a Starbucks in China's Forbidden City now? (I find that almost obscene!) I wish there were more mom-and-pop coffee shops left around, not just multinational behemoths.
On est si petit, le monde est si grand
Que serait la vie sans notre maman?
Elle sait d'un mot redonner confiance
Et faire oublier nos chagrins d'enfant.
Refrain
Ma maman est une maman
Comme toutes les mamans
Mais voilà c'est la mienne
Et pour moi qui peut sous mon toit
Apporter la joie?
Voyez-vous, c'est la mienne
Un regard suffit entre nous
Pour deviner notre pensée
Alors je la prends par le cou
Et je la couvre de baisers
Ma maman est une maman
Comme toutes les mamans
Mais voilà c'est la mienne.
