An evening out in Coral Bay, St John with Don and Caroline. Don was a long time friend who having sailed 99% of the way round the world stopped to smell the roses for the rest of his eventful life.
Yes I know it's a kayak. There is a lot of waiting about for the right ice conditions when sailing in the arctic so any diversion is welcome - as long as you don't fall in. Very few locals ever learn to swim!
Five Moralities Chicken, Wudeji. Don't laugh, KFC is Assured Moral Base. It's like a fast-food version of those little Shanghainese diners. Cloud Nine Mall 5th floor, next to Babela's.
A photo opportunity when the brash from the Peel Glacier surrounded us at anchor. Yes it is two photos joined together or most of what you see would be photographer's feet.

The view from the Grand Hyatt is breathtaking. You can see most of Shanghai's landmarks from here: portion of Pudong, the Huang Pu River, The Bund and Puxi skyline. The only one that could beat this is the view from its sister property of the highest order: The Park Hyatt, purely because you get to see Grand Hyatt's beautiful crowning edifice.
Now we are ready for the Top Three!..

Cloud is an Arabian gelding available for adoption from Horse Rescue United. He had a BIG day today- he rode in the Assunpink for the first time and we did a short photo session. This horse has such a nice mind. He loaded and unloaded from the trailer like a pro, and stood quietly while he was tacked up and braided. For those who are unfamiliar with the Assunpink, there are some open fields and dirt roads by the parking lot. He was all by himself with no other horses, and he handled the whole ride really well, under the expert guidance of Christina Henderson. He saw a rabbit, heard the hounds at the hunt club, and saw cars driving past the park, and took it all in stride. Nothing spooked him, and he kept a flat-footed walk to and from the trailer- it was a very new experience for him, and he was tense but he was willing and honest. Christina reports that he has some nice education under saddle. He has a soft mouth, balances himself naturally up and down hills, understands lateral cues, and readily responds to leg and seat. He's very handsome! I can picture him being just as dapper under western tack as in an English saddle and bridle. He takes up a lot of leg and is surefooted over rocks and up and down hills. For those who remember him from last year, he was named "Bugsy" and was part of a neglect case in Atlantic County. You can contact the rescue for more information. If you're not ready to adopt, there are many volunteer positions available at HRU, from day-to-day care like feeding to assistance with fundraisers. Contact www.horserescueunited.org/

Not a cute shot as these huskies are marooned on a small island in the summer with no food as part of a selective breeding custom.
