Wednesday Morning!!



Tuesday Evening:

 

We ate dinner at the top of our building, in TOTTS, and it was magnificent.  The view from the 34th floor is of the Hong Kong world and it is hard from that viewpoint not to think one could stay forever.  Boats float below and the buildings do their light show.

 

Steve pointed out we have seen dragonflies, and he has noted cockroaches, big ones, by some of the garbage bins, so there you have it.  There are all kinds of life on this island.

 

There is a moon tonight, an increasing crescent, with a golden tint.

 

The night is lively with light.

 

 

 

I offer some haiku from Basho – 1644-1694.

 

Clouds appear

and bring to me a chance to rest

from looking at the moon.

 

 

Harvest moon:

around the pond I wander

and the night is gone.

 

 

No blossoms and no moon

and he is drinking sake

all alone!

 

 

Temple bells die out.

The fragrant blossoms remain.

A perfect evening!

 

 

 

May it be so for us all, day and night!!

 

 

It is Wednesday Morning.  We leave for Macau!!
