Just wanted to share some of the pictures I took - you just wouldnt think 1. Harbin. Yes. You can get a view like that in summer and you can get a short boat ride too! 2. Bombay. Queen Victoria's Train station. Imagine, in a middle of a mess you witness and very nice architecture (don't ask me what is inside!) 3. And these are the famous Harbin tigers. Aren't they just oh-so-cute? 4. Abu-Dhabi. Beautiful view. 5. Ok, this barber shop is one of the oldest in Panjim, Goa (India). It is 90 years old. YES! And they still use those dangerous blades (what are they called?). ONLY FOR MEN!

Imagine, in a middle of a mess you witness and very nice architecture (don't ask me what is inside!) excellent composition. That is one ornate building! What ever they are looking at might not think so ;D Who is the cutie who keeps getting in the way of the shots? ;D ;D ;D

Great pics Cheeky - would you recommend India as a travel destination?
The Tiger Park in Harbin is great fun (for the visitors - not the tigers - or the cow and numerous chickens).

Thanks for sharing Cheeky. India looks like a must place to see. And I love Indian food.
The Harbin tigers look a little skinny. And a little hungry.

Nah, they look pretty healthy. Usually captive tigers are way too fat. Take a look at the same place, only Dave's pics.
I want to know what was inside the bombay train station. what a great building.
Do you mean cut-throat razors, cheeky?

India is a great travel destination. There is indeed so much to see. And if some people think that Indian food is all about masala and curry - well, wrong, it varies from state to state. Main content stays, but there are some specialties. Mr.N, inside the train station looks like a dump. May be now it is better, but it was really not nice at all inside. And yes, they are the razors I mean Tigers do look skinny: it was an after SARS time and they were starving. So we went not because we really wanted to see tigers and other animals, but because we wanted to help raising funds to feed poor beasts. As for tired: it was 30+C (imagine!) that summer in Harbin and they wouldn't know where to hide. They kept on going into the water every other minute! I have more to show you 1. Goa, Calangute beach. Sunset. 2. Goa, Calangute beach, the walk path 3. Children of Kerala 4. Chegal, Kerala. Festival of Water, Fire, Earth and Air: scary picture. 5. Chengal, Kerala. Same festival: dance procession. Well, I can show you some of Bangkok later if you are interested. Actually, mainly the roof tops - I liked the designs

Uberzilla - have a drink on me Love what you did with George's chicken. That isn't contempt for elders, George. It's jumping in with both feet and joining the rest of the gang. Glad you feel so comfortable here, Uber. George - look who's calling the kettle black. If I had a jiao for every one of your posts that was just a smiley... Cheeky, great photos but I don't like the one of the guys hanging by their backs. I'm going to pretend I didn't see it and that people somewhere in the world don't really do that.

Ruth, don't encourage him. Con and Hamish are bad enough. You notice I have unofficially declared "Pick on Con" week?

Why are we picking on Con this week?
I thought we were supposed to be nice to the new guys. Or did Uber cash in his 'be nice to me' coupon when he put your chicken in front of the hungry tigers? Way funny. You gotta admit that much.
