Clingy

Judy likes to be outside her cage (mostly when Sandy is nearby). The problem is she’ll get spooked by who knows what and ends up flying. Last night, she got spooked as usual, flew and landed on Sandy’s back. Not being too smart she just froze instead of climbing to higher ground. I thought the …

Last Supper

Last night Mommie & Daddy left for the Philippines. I figured this would be a good test for the Mark II. These are shot at ISO 6400 with a 50mm f1.4 lens. We had our last dinner at the Firewood Grill at SFO International Terminal. I had the Italian Sausage Panini, oh so messy. Mommie wants …

A Lovely Lunch

Since it was such a nice day we took Mommie & Daddy to Sam’s Chowder House in Half Moon Bay for lunch. I had the Maine Lobster Roll, excellent. BTW these are the very first photos from my new camera although I forgot to set it to shoot RAW, doh!

Canon 5D Mark II

I pre-ordered it September 26. The Fed Exp guy delivered it late last night. My expectations are high.

Yankee Pier

Had a nice lunch with Jon today at Yankee Pier in Santana Row. I had the Scallop Risotto special, very yummy! Jon had some boring salad.

Durian

While I was in San Diego, Rhea gave me a piece of Durian Candy. I’ve heard of durian but never had it. It smelled fine, it tasted alright, but man those Durian farts later that night were terrible.

50th Part II

Six months after Mommie & Daddy’s Golden Wedding Anniversary party (I) in the Philippines, Auntie Puring hosted another party (II) in San Diego coinciding with the actual wedding date, December 27.  I got sick so I wasn’t planning on going but it was an important party so I couldn’t miss it. It was great to …

Bah Humbug

This Christmas sucked! I caught a bug and was out sick, Sandy went to visit family in San Diego and I missed the Nakamatsu Christmas Party! Enough about my woes… Hope everyone else had a Merry Christmas.

Pelicans

For some unknown reason a trio of Pelicans have decided to stake out a claim in our lagoon. They do have to contend with those pesky Cormorants though.
