Ocean Drive

okay, this picture is nothing compared to all the Miami Beach pictures of great photographers or of the pictures we know from the catalogues. It neither shows any of the magical atmosphere on Ocean Drive. the architecture is amazing, the colors at night are pretty.

left handed

we were talking about shops that sell only stuff for left handed persons.
this reminded me of an elderly lady I met in a train from Irkutsk to Ulan Ude. She was very old and spoke only Russian. Her behavior was a mixture of acting shy and being curious. She didn't talk to me at all but watched me all the time.
when I started writing my diary she started smiling and touching my hand. first I was not sure why she acted like that but then I realised that she was astonished by the fact that I used my left hand to write.

gossip

I met these three ladies in a pub in Dinge, Ireland.
They meet here on a regular basis to chat and to have lunch together.

irish breakfast

Even taking a look at this picture and I start to feel very hungry. I love the traditional Irish breakfast and of course I have it every day whenever I visit Ireland. This one was served at The Castle View House and was probably one of the best ones I've ever had!
