It baffles me that so many people sleep rough out in the open with no protection in case of rain, animals or the cold. Let alone finding somewhere that you are less likely to get approached by muggers or worse. She said she had a place to go to but it was too late to get there that night so she slept there.

I've been very lucky in martial arts practice that I met people along the way who knew what they were doing and could teach it well! I'm glad I could spend the long weekend with master Guo and a bunch of great tai chi and Bagua students with the same passion and energy. One day I hope I learn some more Chinese than just ni hao.

This guy was taking down the fairground attraction sign before the last day of the Offenbach volksfest tomorrow just as the evening's fireworks started. My planned location for the fireworks didn't pan out as they were lower than I expected, so I hustled closer and noticed him on the roof.  I'm glad I managed to get a couple of shots before the display ended.
