Elderly lady putting her hand up to the bead throwers at the Galveston Mardi Gras parade
wow. coincidences. thanks. I like to get things right
I probably got it wrong then. Just assumed that because it was right up against the ship and we were docking, that it was bringing us in. Thanks for the correction. Any idea why it would be alongside?

in the Jamaican port town of Falmouth is a tourist trap on the dock. This old gentleman spends his days weaving beautiful baskets and selling them for a living. The hands do their work while he seeks customers. Looks like he's been doing it a very long time...
hard to get pics without people in the way. big crowds. succeeded in this one by hanging the camera over the restraint line. I'd have loved to have gotten a good shot of the ball field, but it was way overcrowded. Some posted how they used to be able to climb the steps. we were told at one time you could go inside and see the pyramid inside, but that's now closed. Yesterday they posted that a new exploration of a water cave inside the pyramid has started that they believe is a burial chamber. Got some great pics, but tough to get a unique one. Thanks to all who posted.

At the Galveston TX Mardi Gras, two dogs were tussling with a toy tire. When they saw me raise may camera, they actually stopped and posed. Even the owner was amused by her "hams"
The stores were closing, crowds departing, lights dimming, but this teen with headphones on, listening to music was oblivious of it all

Rivers is the mascot dog for the City of Pittsburgh. His owners are friends of my son and they brought him along to a picnic, where he charmed and romped. The dog has that certain something that draws people to him. On this day he was a dog being a dog....
Bouvier de Flanders - basically a French Sheep Dog. However the standard for the breed is about 80lbs. This guy is hitting the scales at 140 and is about a third again as big as the breed standard. He's a gentle dog with a big bark. The kids love him. He loves to "herd" them.

Aiden loves the dog, and the dog seems to see him as a buddy. While the dog pushes the grand-girls around to "herd" them, he doesn't do that with Aiden. But the picture catches an interaction that doesn't need a narrative...
