It conquered.
It watched the World Cup.
And now it watches you.

Safari Sauvage - Costa Rica

Autumn 2002. The best images were missed during one walkabout when I neglected to bring along the camera (since when did you need a camera for photos?). Fret not. The imagery was captured in my mind's eye and is available via telepathy. Photo snapping was further famished as I was having the best body surfing since Australia. So we'll have to make do with this paultry selection. As a special bonus, you've been spared one of my own Garageband musical attempts. The musical accompaniment is Cambia la Vida by Ardag. Shot on location in Alajuela, La Fortuna, a road somewhere, and Tamarindo.

March Against Monochrome

A coalition in support of the expression of colour marched down Wilson Boulevard, despite the monochromatic skies. In the end alas, the everyday blandness prevailed. Actually, it's the annual Arlington County Neighborhood Parade. I'm not sure if it takes place anymore.

Approaching Tangier

October 2001. On the ferry from Algeciras, Spain approaching the port of Tangier. Hustlers awaited to pounce upon alighting naïfs. After a certain event in September, the stream of tourists had shrunk to a trickle. The jackels were hungry. Walking away from the port, I was intercepted by a few of them. They said there weren't any more buses today. Certainly none to Fez. On the contrary. There were a couple. One leaving in fifteen minutes. And I was on it.

Mount of Olives Pilgrimage

Ascending the Mount of Olives in Jerusalem, volunteers from Kibbutz Hefzibah climbed towards the holy of holies - beer and food. Alas, the kiosk was closed, forcing them to clamber back down to the awaiting coach.
