I took this picture a week ago while on vacation on the island of Mauritius. We visited the national park featuring the remaining tropical forest of the island. Unfortunately only one percent still remains.
While photographing the beautiful forest a monkey entered the scene. I took this photo where the animal seems to contemplate about the future of itself and the tropical habitat
The Philosopher's Walk, or 哲学の道 (Tetsugaku no Michi), is a canal-side path running through the east side of Kyoto. To my mind, it's by far the most pleasant place in an often ugly and crowded city.

This is what The Bandit said upon seeing people sleeping in doorways literally feet away from those with the means to help.
He said it so effortlessly, with such sincerity, that I had to write it down on the only thing I had, the back of a paper price tag.
Believe me: This man walks the walk. He has such a big heart. Is it any wonder I love him so with such beautiful things in his heart and head?
The Bandit, I am proud to be yours.

The Path of Philosophy (Tetsugaku no michi) is a pleasant path besides a canal that connects Ginkakuji (Silver Pavilion) with the vicinity of Nanzenji. Cherry blossom trees are planted along most of the two Km long path, making it one of Kyoto's most popular spots for hanami in spring. In addition, several smaller temples and a few restaurants can be found along this beautiful path.

The Philosopher's Walk (哲学の道 Tetsugaku-no-michi, lit. Path of Philosophy) is a pedestrian path that follows a cherry-tree-lined canal in Kyoto, between Ginkaku-ji and Nanzen-ji. The route is so-named because the influential 20th-century Japanese philosopher and Kyoto University professor Nishida Kitaro is thought to have used it for daily meditation. It passes a number of temples and shrines such as Hōnen-in, Ōtoyo Shrine, and Eikan-dō Zenrin-ji. It takes about 30 minutes to complete the walk, although many people spend more time visiting the sights along the way. On the northern part of the walk, there are good views of the nearby Daimonji. The walk is a popular destination for tourists and locals, especially during hanami.
