Our Daily Challenge -- Song.
My song is our national anthem represented by our flag. This is just a quick snap. I spotted the flag flying over Home Depot when I stopped for batteries today. We're on storm watch here. Isaac has not yet arrived, but it is a little breezy tonight.
I'm sorry I haven't been keeping up with comments. I'll try to catch up when things settle down a little bit here.
Three flags flying; United States, Buddhist, (south) Vietnam. The three bands of red on the Viet flag signify the regions of South, North and Central Vietnam.
I Wasn't the olny person taking a picture of the flag in this light. This is the big Flag by the Wax Museum. The sun was low in the West.
I just posted this to thank everyone who commented on my last photo "Like I need a hole in the head" It made #2 in explore and was front page on the interestingness page which was a first for me!!!

"Flags!"
I was working in Southminster today, which really is somewhere very near the end of the world, on the bleak Dengie Peninsula. The sun came out for a couple of minutes though, which brightened my day somewhat. I drove past this pub which had these three fabulous flags blowing in the wind. I pulled up on the pavement to take a couple of snaps, when a car pulled up next to me. A huge, scary looking man came over and asked me what I was doing. I explained about my PAD and said that these flags had caught my eye. His face softened and he said (in his broad Geordie accent) that that was ok. He was actually the Landlord of the pub and he thought I was from the council and was taking photos as evidence and was going to ask him to take them down!! We had a little chat, and he offered me a Gin & Tonic, but I had to decline, I still had 4 visits to do!!

Symbolizing the "Look East" policy for Malaysia, The Dayabumi Building was finished in a mere 26 months.In 1981, the newly-installed Mahathir government of Malaysia implemented its "Look East" policy to convey its desire to learn from Japan and Korea and join the ranks of the advanced countries of Asia. One of the most notable legacies of this policy was the Dayabumi Urban Development Project.
The jewel of this plan was the Dayabumi Building, which was constructed during Stage III. The original plan had called for reinforced concrete and a construction period of 44 months. It would have been nearly impossible to complete the task in only half that time! Therefore, Takenaka proposed a steel-frame structure, which would allow the edifice to be finished in 26 months.
