lunch
We're making it so hard on Joey eating in these "clean" restaurants instead of going for street food. We kid him about getting sick because he's not getting his requisite germs!

no fun
Sure takes the fun out of posting food pics on Fb to evoke envy...truth is food is better in Vancouver and more reasonable priced depending on where you go. The dish on the top left is interesting as it is all chili which we thought were beans. Soso fried rice. The fruits on the streets looked great but I was afraid of getting something and today I saw the biggest cherries in my life. Soup on your feet? I'll let you all guess what that is...

hooked on Apple
Or at least the IPhone...I just wished the camera was better but being able to shoot at anytime seems to improve my creativity...in conjunction with the Apps of course.

sunny day
After a couple of days of overcast/rainy days it was nice to look up this morning to see the blue skies with beautiful clouds. Not sure how long it will last as other dark clouds were rolling in ... but I will take what we have for the moment. I used a polaroid type frame with caption... found a photo posted by a fb friend to be interesting and after scrounging around in my IPhone discovered that I had the app Camera+ which he had used. So it's something to keep in mind when we travel again. The look of the photo is so appropriate for travel photos...
