Standing across the bund. Staking out at the world's second tallest tower. Looking down upon the jin mao tower and the Shanghai World Financial Center. Only 2 hours till sunset..best attraction in Shanghai thus far. Kinda hungry..

We arrived in luang prabang on the last day of Pi Mai; the Laotian new year. Apart from the display of the phra bang, ritual devotion is carried out by bathing the buddha. The blessed water is poured not directly but through a spout of the naga beginning at the tail end. The water runs through the body that forms a gutter and on to the statue from the mouth of the naga. Painted upon the walls of the wats are jataka of gautama's life.

Morning market downtown Luang Prabang. I've never really liked wet markets yet I'd visit them time again. And if I have to ask myself why. I'd probably say it's the energy. Folks once asked me what's special about Asia..and it just came to me that I'm attracted to its vibrancy. A kinda life on the streets that assaults all senses. That's why Asia.

Of the cities visitors are allowed to go to in Burma, the little town of Hpa An, off the main tourist trail is one that left the deepest impression. Never knew why I had never thought to share..But I had seen and experienced so much...so much more that it isolates. And yet all I wanted is to see much more. Just as how you'd find me strange for wanting, I find it strange that you do not.
7th century stucco carvings - kawgun cave. How did I even get there 🙄

The afterthoughts of a photograph.

At first it was the flurry of activity, then it was the color of the robes and then the age of these novices. How different is it in culture, how similar is it to be human.

Because we are amazingly gifted with the ability to emote. I miss them clear blue skies, crisps cool air. I miss the mountains.
