One of the first views around the outer moat.
This was a typical sight throughout the day. Person washing something in the water, restaurants along the waters edge and boats in the far background.
This looks like trouble is about to occur, doesn't it?
The birds have a string wrapped around their neck so that they can't swallow big fish. Once in the boat, the handler pops the fish out as seen above. The bird standing on the front of the boat also has a fish in it's throat.
Pulling a bird out of the water. The one at his feet is waiting to have a fish removed.
Bad to the bone. More like dorky to the bone. The only thing saving me is that I am apparently doing an unconscious "Blue Steel" from Zoolander...
Obligatory photo op.
Maybe the best gift wasn't a wooden sword for Ro and nun chucks for Riley. Actually, we're 4 days into ownership of the weapons and no one has struck out with them inappropriately. I think it's either my good parenting (as I recall the quote was "if you hit anyone with those, I can assure you that you will never see them again") or Taekwando has given Riley a healthy respect for martial arts. Yeah, I would bet on the outside influence over my parenting too.
Now this was a better gift - a hand woven grasshopper on a string. Can't hurt anyone and a steal at less than 50 cents (no foolin'!).
