Cuando ella descubrió la verdad, rechazó la propuesta de matrimonio de Sangkuriang imponiéndole una condición: debía construir una canoa en una sola noche. Al no lograrlo antes del amanecer, Sangkuriang enfureció y dio una patada a la canoa, que quedó volteada y se convirtió en el monte Tangkuban Perahu.

On the south bank of the River Thames in London just east of Tower Bridge is an area informally called Shad Thames. Java Wharf is situated on St Saviour's Dock in Shad Thames. Charles Dickens set Bill Sikes's den at the east of Shad Thames in Oliver Twist, in the buildings adjacent to St Saviour's Dock. It is here that Sykes falls from a roof and dies in the mud, probably of St Saviour's Dock. The sign for 'Java Wharf' looks a little askew in this image. The sign actually 'flows' around some the brickwork.

Ok so story time....
I titled this shot Java Alley because it is right next to Theo's Java Club. Which is my favorite coffee shop in my home town. What a boring story right? Well that's not really the story. No one I know actually calls this Java Alley. No we call it "The Piss Alley". You see that wet stain on the concrete? That's a perpetual state.
This little alley and said coffee shop are part of the local entertainment district. We call it "The District" Clever huh? There are a lot of bars in The District" And if stand around this spot at 3ish in the morning you'll get to see some one peeing there. If it's a Saturday night and you're real lucky you might get to see a couple of assholes fighting for the right to pee there.
That's it that's my story. One day when I get a better camera that can handle night shooting better I'm going to go back home and take a series of shots of this alley living up to it's name. Look for it.
we've seen many heavy loaded bikes, this was just the most fragile one...it's not exactly perfectly in focus, however, it's quite a nice motion scene...
