This is the second image capture of several girls guiding the long body of the dragon on the temporary stage on Washington Street during the Spring Festival celebration in San Francisco's Chinatown on March 7, 2015. This image shows the Dragon in its circular motion after the two poses that highlighted its ferocious looking face. I published the image out of the order taken to show how the young people work with the poles supporting the Dragon. Look easy from here. However, like most things, experienced performers always make difficult tasks look easy. Bravo to these girls for a crowd pleasing show in their Spring Festival Dragon Dance. At first I thought the performers were both girls and boys. Upon closer look, they all seem to be girls from Yau Kung Moon and can use 7 - 16 foot poles for the Dragon Dance. Below are excerpts from their Yau Kung Moon website where they explain they are highly trained Dragon Dancers.

 

It is believed that Lion Dance brings good luck, good health and prosperity…

 

Yau Kung Moon has been providing our performance services for over 30 years and has traveled around the world to do its work. We have performed and competed in many Championships around the world. We can be seen at local or overseas competitions, in movies, “Bay Area Backroads,” the SF Chinese New Year Parade, or just performing at a Chinatown wedding/business opening in our signature gold uniforms. We offer these magical moments for you to add to your memories.

 

Through our vast experience; we have gained knowledge, insight and paid attention to detail. We have done performances from the smallest family restaurant to one of the world’s largest corporations. We know what it takes to turn a good event into a great event.

Guide Bridge signal box located to the east of Guide Bridge railway station. 15:00, Monday 18th July 1988

Guide Bridge signal box was a Great Central Railway Company type 5 design opened on 9th December 1984 fitted with a Westinghouse Signals Limited M4 entrance-exit signalling panel, having previously been open as Ashton Junction signal box from January 1907 until 24th November 1984. The signal box was refurbished in the 2003 including the fitting of uPVC windows, and closed on 4th December 2011 when control passed to the Manchester East Signalling Control Centre. The signal box was originally scheduled to close on 17th October 2011 but the closure was postponed due to faults or quirks transferring to Manchester East Signalling Control Centre when Ashburys signal box closed and the signalmen being given more time to get used to them. After closure the signal box was retained for use as an office, unfortunately an electrical rewire was required which was considered to much and the signal box was demolished in mid June 2013

 

A replacement Tew Engineering Limited SM48 entrance-exit signalling panel was constructed but never installed

On April 18th of 2015, my hometown of Ermelo (The Netherlands), celebrated its 70th anniversary year of the liberation from occupation by Nazi Germany during the Second World War.

On this exact day, seventy years ago, Canadian soldiers came into town via the Putterweg, hit a roadblock and met with some German resistance.

Today, festivities included a re-enactment of the fighting and liberation, in which cadets of the Royal Military School (the KMS in Ermelo) were dressed in period-accurate Canadian uniforms and ran through the Putterweg, guns blazing.

 

There was lots of music, a static show of military vehicles and demonstrations of armaments and equipment by our own armed forces; the 400th Medical Battalion (400 GNKBAT), 45th Mechanized Infantry Battalion (45 PAINFBAT RIOG), Communications (Regiment Verbindingstroepen) and one of the Engineering Battalions (Genie).

January 2, 1982. Tom Selleck and John Hillerman of CBS's "Magnum, P.I."

Future guide dogs for the blind receive training on boarding and riding buses in 1983.

August 17, 1985. Bill Cosby of NBC's "The Cosby Show"; Tom Selleck of CBS's "Magnum, P.I."; Bob Newhart of CBS's "Newhart"; Lee Majors of ABC's "The Fall Guy"; Mr. T of NBC's "The A-Team"; Ted Danson of NBC's "Cheers" (illus. by Bruce Stark).

The Guide Dogs for the Blind Association approached warm and cold audiences with a ‘good news’ direct marketing campaign at Christmas 2008.

 

Devised by direct-to-digital agency TDA, the campaign spotlights the special, life-changing partnerships between guide dogs and their owners. It features a trainee guide dog puppy called Jack and the story of Voss, a qualified guide dog who saved his owner’s life by blocking his exit from a train that had stopped short of a platform.

We had a 3 hour guided tour of The Alhambra in Granada.

 

The site includes the Nasrite palaces and the Generalife pleasure palace. Also here is the Alcazaba, gardens and the Palace of Charles V.

 

It is a World Heritage Site. Alhambra, Generalife and Albayzín, Granada.

 

Alcazaba Fortress

 

The Alcazaba, a fortress, is the oldest part of the Alhambra, as is the case of the Vermilion Towers (Torres Bermejas). It is thought that before it was built and before the Muslims arrived to Granada, there were already several constructions in the same area. The first historical reference to the existence of the Alcazaba dates from the 9th century and it is believed that it was then built by Sawwar ben Hamdun during the fights between Muslims and muwalladins [Christians who converted to the Islam and lived among the Muslims].

 

Stunning views of Granada and The Albaicin

My personal motto :) . I saw this adage on a tour boat operator's craft years ago, on a field trip to Bayou Segnette with my daughter. I have quoted it ever since. This saucy cowgirl (inkjet print out of a scan since I no longer possess the original postcard--*sigh*) looks as though she'd make a great guide!

David has been volunteering for National Museums Scotland for 15 years and has delivered a number of different themed tours during this time. He is pictured in front of this fixed azimuthal condensing lighthouse optic which was used for the River Tay, an object that features in his Scottish Lighthouses themed tour.

 

Our guided tours are run by a number of enthusiastic and experienced volunteer guides and as part of Volunteers' week we'd like to take the opportunity to introduce a selection of our guides.
