# OUT & ABOUT in Australia ... a dodgy doctor???


     Was looking back at some pics of when I was in Aus. last year and found this one.  This shot was taken in a bar down at the beach in Glenelg Adelaide. 

     This is quite extreme advertising for sure.  Well it's not exactly advertising, more like trying to get the message across that this shouldn't be done!!  And ain't that the truth!! 

Kind of makes you feel wonky just looking at this picture  :))

# OUT & ABOUT in JAPAN # ... a VERY old looking fish!!


As I walked along the street at the Tsukiji Fish Markets one fine sunny morning recently, I stopped at a shop in front of me displaying an odd looking piece of wood!!  I got closer.  The wood seems to be some sort of carving.  Maybe the guy, who is standing beside the shop is a wood carver.  I get even closer.  But I was curious as to why a wood carver would have a shop in a fish market?!?!?

# WONKY ENGLISH # ... a cafe of people :)



    Could this be the place where Rockefeller really met his end???  Legend has it that he was eaten by cannibals in the depths of Irianjaya.  Is this cafe connected to cannibalism???  It certainly looks a bit WONKY.

# WILD STORIES of ADVENTURE # ... Java, Indonesia



     We are on another bus,  but this driver is not like the crazy driver we had when we were in Sumatra!!  There is no need to feel that our lives will end soon. 

     Our destination is Jakata,  the capital of Indonesia.  Sumatra is wonderful and tropical, a world of difference as we enter the outskirts of Jakata.  We are famished!!  Starving, as we enter the bus terminal, our transition on our way to somewhere,

# WONKY ENGLISH # ... Dr. Spock's cousin, or just SPORTY??



     The size of the bike caught my eye as I wandered through the shops having a browse.  The tiny wheels ... they are so small!!  Then I saw it!!  The name!!  Out came my camera, I had to get this one!!
