Bwahaha

Yangshuo

wow, ambitious to be announcing shows that far ahead. i wasn't expecting that.

is that you and your brother?

Restaurant, not zoo! Shamian Island, Guangzhou

Giant pandas sleeping, eating, napping, snacking

Red pandas! Are these the cutest or what?

Some more Hong Kong pics Bun towers at the Museum of History Kowloon Park Bus ride to Stanley town, past Repulse Bay, and Stanley waterfront Wine & Dine fest (or tequila fest for Velvet)

I think there was good food to be had all over. It's just that we were on a pretty tight budget so we were always choosing cheap eats. There are loads of great restaurants in HK no doubt, but we would sometimes eat in a diner, so what can you expect. Also, when Velvet says he kept losing his appetite, I don't think it was because his food wasn't good, I just think his appetite was being weird.

Very cool!

i'll put up a permanent link to some pics once i sort through them, but in the meantime, here's a few. HK skyline and light show as seen from Kowloon An old church (St. Johns?) among the skyscrapers in HK Hehe Views from Victoria Peak Skyterrace and restaurant building at the peak HSBC building inside and out

Good to read this, I am wishing him the best and continued healing vibes.

My heart just overflowed with love for you Booche!

any Ottawa folks planning on this show? There are only a handful of cheap tix left. Not sure I have the gumption to head down there by myself (and definitely not to make an advance purchase) but if some other folks are going, then I might be up for it!

Agreed. It was such an interesting mix of old and new stuff. Not to be missed!

I just learned a new word i had no idea what a drupe was! Welcome to the board. drupe dro͞op/ noun BOTANY a fleshy fruit with thin skin and a central stone containing the seed, e.g., a plum, cherry, almond, or olive.

Tomorrow night (Nov 12) is in Gatineau in case you Ottawa folks didn't know! There are still tix available The venue is a nice, small theatre although it is not really central. I guess we'll hear some stuff from his latest album of pedal steel "Goodbye to language" Toronto and Hamilton shows next week!
