Just after this photograph was taken, and while we were enjoying a picnic dinner overlooking the ocean, the International Space Station flew over.

A mongoose visiting the flower bed just outside our house. I think that we have a family floating around the property. I have seen a couple of youngsters running around.
We unplugged yesterday and took a trip to Hana on the Eastern edge of Maui, spending the day with some friends at Hamoa Beach.
We took a brief break at Keanae from the twisty road to Hana, here looking westwards.
Once at Homoa, the Big Island was clear to see.
I took a nap (my view!)
And a view of Hamoa Beach as we left.
Scenes from upcountry Maui.
This morning’s double rainbow. I had to use pano mode on my phone to capture this, it was so big. 🌈
Living in a hot, sunny climate, I find something comforting about waking up to a wet, overcast morning, especially when that morning is on a Sunday. I’m sure that this is related to my UK origins.
Love
I have been visiting the ruins of Tintern Abbey since I was a kid. I like to be there after the day’s visitors have left, to sit beside the river Wye, taking in the stillness that inhabits this beautiful place.

Discovery
Back in the late 80’s when I was out discovering the world and myself. This slide is of Erhai Lake near the then small town of Dali, Yunnan, China.

Flake
I feel that this door’s look benefits from the flaky look as the paint peels off. Taken in Hudson, NY last year.

Thank you Haiku Post Office.

Change
I’ve watched this old railway carriage, in a corner of South Wales, change over the decades as it is slowly taken over by the natural world surrounding it.

I’m not sure if these count as ribbons, but I’ll take them! Rolls of indigo cloth tied up with ribbons in a fabric factory in Chikugo-shi, Fukuoka, Japan.
