Photo Adventures with Curiosity and Learning

How we came home including taxi from Tanah Merah Ferry Termina

Yesterday was a bummer. I managed to drop my underwater camera into the water here - but even with all the guys helping, we could not locate it. Here is early morning clouds and Sun Moon

A low tide morning - a time for me to make another search of the area to locate the camera

Wouldn't you know it - as soon as I turned a rock over, up pops a little hairy crab just looking at me

Another view

IN aohter place - this little guy decided to look up

From the side

From the front

and at another place - another little crab

watching me search for my underwater camera

After no success - it was time to address success. I have promised Santi that I would do photos of her. Yesterday, in my depression over my clumsy dropping of my camera - I forgot to take their photos. They have nice new shirts - and so today - my mood was better and here are the photos of the reception staff

Santi's smile

Jaya and his quiet smile

Sina and her Sina-smile

and Theresa and her Theresa smile. Theresa some times works in the Sea Sport with Florence and Lina. All these staff are multi-lingual to the point of embarassment of me. For example, Lina and Theresa speak Teochiu as well as Indonesian and English. Florence speaks Mandarin as well as Indonesian and English. I would like a bit of their language magic

Another smile

Theresa and Sina

Again

Dewi - who met me at the Tanjung Pinang ferry terminal on Friday

Our reception team - Ari (left) has the best smile

I wanted something different than a straight line - so we tried this staggered organization

Here is the star of the day - Sina

Now with a special folding of the hands

And another hand signal

And the three stars - Sina, me and Santi. Actually there is a small competition with this organization. This is Lina's favorite and so she and Florence introduced me to this presentation. I must say, I like it and to be surrounded by either Lina and Florence or Santi and Sina - what more can an old man dream of?
