Breakfast


China - Chengdu

中国  成都(双流国际机场T2 Pizza Hut)

1/1/2013 Winter

6am

Never have a habit of waking up so early in the morning.

Always believe that brain at this hour is still in sleeping mode.

After my good old army days, I could hardly recall waking up so early in the morning.

But of course, other than catching morning flight.

By every possible means, I would always avoid morning flight!


Looked out the window while waiting for my breakfast.


How come the image looked blurry?


Was it my eyes or the glass panel?


It must be my sleepy brain!



Breakfast arrived.

Classic American Breakfast RMB28.

Swallowing my breakfast at a turtle pace.

Too early to board the plane.

Without looking at the menu.

Ordered another cup of tea.




Cup of tea arrived.

Same size as the previous.

RMB18!!!

64.3% of my Classic American Breakfast!

My sleepy brain had awakened.







Once again, my theory of morning brain is sleepy brain is proven correct!

蛇年杂想 II

Singapore

新加坡

蛇年的庆祝接近尾声,想用蛇来做祝词还真难。

从初一想到接近十五,脑袋依旧空空如也。

哎,蛇还真的没什么祝词!

跟蛇扯上关系的都不是什么好词!

虎头蛇尾、蛇蝎心肠、杯弓蛇影、画蛇添足、蛇头鼠目、打草惊蛇、一朝被蛇咬,十年怕井绳。

看呗,有那一句是好的?

难道蛇真的一无是处吗?

那可不。

蛇是灭鼠能手,它维持生态平衡。

蛇的全身皆可入药,就算蛇皮(蛇蜕)可用以治惊风、抽搐、癫痫等。

蛇为制作皮革品提供原料,其皮可制作乐器的琴膜和鼓皮;也可制成皮带、皮鞋、钱包等。

在这祝愿大家在蛇年里:

龙蛇共舞三春景、蛇舞九州处处新、蛇步锦程业辉煌、蛇游大泽燕游春、蛇含瑞气报年华、蛇出山穴喜报春、蛇衔瑞草户迎春。

蛇年杂想

Singapore - Chinatown

新加坡 - 牛车水

“Mummy,十二生肖有什么动物?”

“鼠牛虎兔龙蛇马羊猴鸡狗猪。”

“那猫和狐狸呢?”

“不要乱说,十二生肖哪有猫和狐狸?”

“不信你自己看!”

中间方块不是猫吗?
中间方块不是狐狸吗?
