The resort was full of Japanese honeymooners... at least half the guests we saw fit this category.
We visited this lovely resort adjacent to the anchorage, and tried to be subtle about using their fresh water showers by the pool. mostly.

The match was organised to highlight Save the Dream’s vision of creating a world where every child and young person has the opportunity to play sport safely and learn from its values of integrity, respect and inclusion, according to a press statement.
A Warhammer Fantasy Battles Tournament. Run by me. I ended up playing as the spare player so photos were limited.
I saw a project a while back with matches glued together to make patterns of fire, and I thought "Why not? Start in early December, have it ready for New Year's Eve, what could be easier?"
Clearly I underestimated. Over two months, 40,000 some odd matches, a bad second degree burn when a bunch of strike-anywhere matches went off in my hand, uncountable numbers of burns from hot glue (my fingers are magnetically attracted to hot glue, apparently) and predictably, the ire of every dog on my block at the very end. Worth it? Probably not, but at least it's done. No more fire projects for a while.

Congratulations to the Class of 2023 on a successful match day! At 11 a.m. on March 17, RUSH's graduating medical students received results from the National Residency Matching Program informing them of the residency programs they would move on to after graduation.
These two combatants, who share a powerful hatred for each other, did show that they are capable of setting aside their differences for a common goal. In Round One, Ms. Aran and Ridley squared off against the Black Ops agents Solid Snake and Liquid Snake. Despite the agents best efforts, including the piloting of a nuclear powered mecha, Samus’ skill at facing enemies much larger than her came in handy as she and Ridley annihilated the two assassins with no real challenge. The final score: 5-0.
Round Two brought an interesting challenge as they went toe-toe with Mario and Bowser. In order to face the Sci-Fi Slaughterhouses, Bowser had to become Giga Bowser, a giant bloodthirsty being that thrives on destruction. Mario was given several powerups, including his pyrokinesis and ability to become liquid metal, among others. Still, even with those abilities added on, Samus and Ridley’s abilities and weaponry gave them a decided edge. The final score: 5-0 with Samus and Ridley dusting debris off their shoulders and moving on to the Championship.
Their opponents: Link and Ganondorf. This match was a little more interesting as it matched Fantasy VS Sci-Fi. Link’s weaponry and transformation allowed him to attack Ridley and hold his own for some time. Samus, no stranger to giant beasts, went toe to toe with Ganondorf in Ganon form. His energy attacks provided him some cover and defense against the she-tank. In the end, Link and his nemesis fell with a score of 5-1.
Semi-Finals. In one of the most spirited fights in the Playoff Challenge, Samus and Ridley went up against two more assassins. Snake Eyes and Storm Shadow. This was tough for both sides as the advanced weaponry of Samus and Ridley proved a deterrent to the ninjas. But, their versatility and agility allowed them to keep their distance until the right moment. However, Samus and Ridley’s combined brutality made sure that the right moment never came. In the end, Team Metroid rose to the top with a score of 5-4.
The moment of truth had arrived- The Final Showdown. Samus and Ridley would face the other undefeated team: Obi-Wan Kenobi and Darth Vader; two futuristic fighting teams squaring off in the original Dome. When the combatants entered the arena, no one could have foreseen the slaughter to come as Samus and Ridley promptly showed that faith in the Force was misplaced. In a stunning 5-1 victory, Samus and Ridley took the title of champion!
What a ride! Honestly, I can’t speak for everyone, but I never saw that coming. Samus and Ridley proved themselves an unstoppable machine of fury that pummeled their opponents and took the title. Well done, Team Metroid.
To match the stretchy bracelets. Please excuse any dodgy wire wrapping - my silver-plated headpins are hard, and a bit tough to manipulate. (They look fine when not viewed with the macro setting, honest!)

I wanted to show the falling matches using a tripod and the help of the sunlight, by freezing the motion.
3 second exposure, 10 second self timer. I ran to the end of the table after hitting the shutter button, struck a match and spun it in a circle. Julia's quite good at sitting still.
