so this is the 7th post
and there are more to come
i wouldn’t have written so much
if i were to upgrade from
an iPhone to another
*
maybe just one or two
on the shopping process
and that’s it
that’s a plus point about
making a change
i guess
*
so i took it out for a walk
on a Sunday evening
breezy and not sunny
perfect weather for a walk
but not really for photography
*
will take it as a test then
if the camera works fine
with such weather
then it shall qualify as a
point and shot for travelling
*
basically throwing two stones
with one bird
i mean throwing two birds
with one stone
*
while trying to achieve
the first 10k steps in a day
which ultimately failed
*
i was close…
after adding the 3k steps
from the grocery shopping
in the morning
*
yeah we literally walk around here
at least once or twice in a week
pretending to be tourists
more so when i started to
snap away as if it’s my first time here
*
this is the Independence Museum
i have not entered a single museum
in this city
ironically i insist on
going to at least one museum
for any city i travel to
*
the fabrication of history
and the canons are aiming at
the busy street across the river
instead of the open sea
*
the reason why
we didn’t and never will
achieve 10k steps is
we ended up finding a corner and
looking at the world goes round
as always
*
*
gosh he must be feeling quite
sad and lonely and empty
General Cheng Ho
i am supposedly familiar with him
for three generations
we have been staying at this road
named after him
*
we used to meet a little monkey
or two here
not anymore
*
snapped this to show that
i am able to handle a plus size phone
with one hand
let’s say you wanna
take a photo of an ice cream or drink
with an iconic building in the background
it’s quite manageable, still
*
no worries if you can’t
since there’s a mini screen mode
to slice the screen to 3/4
of the full screen
*
this place looks golden
during sunset on a sunny day
not today
*
we come here so often that
we are acquainted with the
souvenir and drink sellers along the path
*
i am going on Instagram now
to see how many people actually
upload photos with this tag
but it’s a good way to promote
this area of ours which is
hardly known by its name
*
holy crab
i ended in Mango
all of the sudden
when i spotted that
Bugs Bunny pullover
the shot is quite shaky
i must be that excited
*
i always wanted to buy
last piece, though
i hid it by shifting
to the end
not sure if it’s still there
4 days have passed
and i haven’t got the time
to go check it out still
*
walking 10k steps
is pretty much ruined
with a heavy dinner
*
life is good
in a small city like this
can’t describe why but
*
for me happiness
when it comes to food
is not about going far and wide
hunting for exquisite food
*
it’s all about
having that favourite place
that not many people know
and you already have in mind
about what to order
even before entering
served hot by the crew
you are familiar with
and it tastes good as usual
*
