photo: Martin G. Wienert, vending machine in Kyoto (2007)



I mentioned the yellow parasol before (see below). It was so hot in Kyoto in May 2007. And there were a lot of women with parasols. We went to Takashimaya (department store) and looked for things which could help us in the sun ... Now I use this parasol in the German summer ...





a memory:

Cool green tea!
When I cross the street
I will taste it

Martin and you see a lot of places and events. The remarkable thing: You both make me see what my eyes and my brain don't notice. Thanks for that and the many yellow parasols and -pluies in your life.

Best wishes
Ralf
