Persongalleriet #632: Beijing, Day 2

But I'll start with a quick recap of how I got here. Wrote a blog about my troubles with the Scandinavian Airlines pilots' strike a couple of days ago, but that was i Swedish, so here'a a short version in English:
* About 10 hours of telephone queing, spread over 2 days,  before I could adjust my travel plan after my flight was canceled.
* A 37 hour trip incuding an overnight train journey, instead of a 17 hour trip.
* Upon arrival my suitcase was lost. Luckily I got it after 11 hours. So, that was 48+ hours in the same clothes... That shower and change of clothes was sweet!

So, day 1 was mostly tiredness and worry about the suitcase. Day 2 was something else entirely! I woke early, about 6 a.m., and went for a morning stroll. Couldn't resist some breakfast:

Chinese breakfast on the street! Mild and aromatic by themselves, but dip them in a mix of Chinese vinegar and chili paste and there's a wake-up call for ya!  :-) And as you see, I couldn't resist eating one before I took the shot.

Scene from right outside my hostel's front door!

I did three photo-walks this day. Morning, mid-day and evening.Here's a shot from the mid-day walk:

China-America.

Ice Cream with Tenderness on the Side.

Pics from the evening walk will have to wait, can't spend all day in front of the laptop!  ;-)

Be well, everybody!

Persongalleriet #631: Beijing Live Blog Up and Running!

June 15th, 2016.
This is actually day 2 in Beijing, but jet lag and other troubles (more about that later) made me wait until today before I got the Live Blog under way. Here's just a quick snap from about 6:30 a.m. this morning. Now I have to get back out on the streets!

Be well everybody!

Persongalleriet #628: Duvorna vid Nya Moskéen

Istanbul, 12/4 2015.
De här duvorna och de här små båsen, där man säljer fågelfrö framför Yeni Camii i Istanbul, är väldigt flitigt fotade. Här kommer ett par försök från min kamera:

Trevlig helg, alla!
