The pretty dogs; the dogs are pretty


So all those things I learnt in Spanish lessons - los perros bonitos, los perros son bonitos, etc - were not wasted. I have seen some fat cats, pretty girls, happy boys and big houses. Just as long as no one speaks to me, I am fine.
Back to the dogs - Buenos Aires is full of them and they all live in apartments, so dog walking businesses do very well. And just the right weather for walking dogs, as you can see.

I can't get enough of topiary dragons - see why



These dragons are next to the lake in cental Hanoi. The person who designed them had a nice sense of whimsy. And who said communists don't have fun? Imagine getting someone in Sydney to approve something playful like this.
