20241023 Dali/ Erhai/Baisha / Rainbow/ Cangshan / rose cake

 Our 2 days ended for Dali. Home to mainly the Bai minority ethnic groups. Think this group is pretty house proud based on their architecture of their houses. Even our guide owns the traditional Bai headdress and costume even today. Yunan is famous for their Puer tea , silver , marble, and all the fruits and veg. 

Ever watched Li Xian in his recent drama 去有风的地方？ well we went to the site filming location of their embroidery workshop today. Saw so many beautiful hand embroidery stuff!

And tie dye! Now I know why it is a tie and a dye. Slightly different from the way Malaysia and indo batik is being done.

20241018- Aaron's Awesome LH Red Sunset @ LH

 Ever heard of BLUE hour?

I think Aaron managed to catch this awesome "RED Sunset" @ LH on 19th October at this great timing 7pm - beautiful dash of red of the skyline.

This afternoon - we talked about "procrastinate and wait"

My little 14 YO grand nephew Aaron had this "waiting" problem? LOL

So we had a good chat with the parable of the 2 sons in Matt 21 and also from the James on faith and deeds.

Well, Aaron has to an an Antman! 

Proverb 6! Go to the ant, you sluggard; consider its ways and be wise!

No more "waiting" and being lazy! Action!
