This monk washing was hanging on the line at a pagoda we visited.

Biên Hòa is a city in Dong Nai Province, Vietnam, about 20 miles (32 km) (30 kilometers) east of Saigon, to which Bien Hoa is linked by Vietnam Highway 1. In 1989 the estimated population was over 300,000. And now in 2005, population increased to 541,495, and some estimates show that the city has 604,548 people in 2007

Bien Hoa grew into a major suburb of Saigon (later renamed Ho Chi Minh City) as the capital city of South Vietnam grew. Following the First Indochina War, tens of thousands of refugees from the northern and central regions of Vietnam—a large portion of them Roman Catholics—resettled in Bien Hoa as part of Operation Passage to Freedom.

During the Vietnam War, the United States Air Force operated Bien Hoa Air Base near the city. Nonetheless, a significant number of the city's residents sympathized with, or were members of, the Viet Cong. Mortar attacks on U.S. and ARVN targets were frequently staged from residential districts in Bien Hoa.

With regard to entertainment, the city includes several amusement parks, night clubs and restaurants lining the Dong Nai River. Construction has increased rapidly (with many Western-style houses and villas under development), and the real estate market has experienced a series of boom cycles since the mid-1990s. The retail market still includes the many ad hoc bazaar-type markets and shop-fronts common to most of Vietnam, but now also includes air-conditioned, enclosed shopping malls, one of which, a Big C branch, includes a KFC restaurant, a Western-style grocery store, a bowling alley and video arcade, among others.

It was some sort of ceremonial thing..? Or just for cooling people down, as decorously as possible. Troughs for hand-washing appeared frequently in both Kyoto and Nara.

This was my first time using a produce wash. Bought a ton of strawberries today so washed them with biokleen (grapefruit seed and lime peel extract) and stuck them in the freezer. I was surprised at how bubbly it got for not containing any harsh chemicals.

Thankfully the "washing machine" is more reliable than our wicked PC !!!

A uni project:

I'm dyeing fabrics with coffee and trying out different techniques of dyeing. Thought I'd take some photos. This one was messed with in photoshop (colours).

Shame I was just snapping at this point for sketchbook, wish the t-shirt was fully in the picture :(

The crocks don’t usually compose themselves so neatly. Sorry for the subliminal advertising.

After a week away there is a pile of washing to be done.

Don't you always find the oddest things in the oddest places? I do. It's weird, really, but I couldn't keep my finger from pressingthe camera button when I saw this. I thought it was quite lovely.

Washing birds can look both comical and graceful at the same time. In the third shot he looks quite bizarre with his head twisted up 180 degrees 😆.

The washing machine was made of timber.
