Yes, this post is about 10 days late.  Still worth blogging about it though. I was talking to a friend in America the other day.  We both have blogs, and have a list of events to write about.  In fact we are both trying to learn a new language using Rosetta Stone.   After working all

Here are just a couple random videos.  One of a ton of fish fighting for food,s night time bad quality of people dancing at the square, and the red river turbulence.
