The often frustrating effort to get Aiden to do his homework took a turn for the brighter this morning. One of this activities was to go explore a place that he'd not been to before (this being the easy part - writing about it afterwards being the less easy part). I should not have been here, but got a surprise one day reprieve, supposed to leave for the US this morning, flying through LA (less desirable) and got onto a flight through Chicago tomorrow (much more desirable). Ange came up with the idea of going to a temple quite near us, but which for some reason we have not been to before. It started with a really nice trail walk, and came out at the place in these pics which had it's own little pier and ferry. Weatherwise it was lovely - overcast but clear, humid but cool. Much better than being on the plane, and gave me a chance to lash a few with my new camera. It's really capable for a little compact, which is delightful. I put in the pic at the bottom to show you - great light and tones and detail - that one taken out of the window of the car as we rolled along, and directly off the camera. Ev couldn't be persuaded to come - Aiden charged around. The writing part follows - but for that I will be out and about.
