Sydney Australia - Sun's out here

The rain put the HK airport in chaos mode.
We got out 3 hours late.  And when we backed out they still had 30 planes that hadn't gotten in to a gate - and that was at 1130pm.
The sun was out when we arrived in Sydney - a cool fall day but a lovely day.
Warm enough to have an interesting crowd at the heated outdoor pool - 2 different models getting photographed, 2 honey moon couples sipping champagne and eating strawberries around the pool and in the spa and 2 boys doing cannon balls in to the pool and splashing everywhere.  While mom and dad watch on in their winter jackets.

Hong Kong - squalls, amber and then red rain. We had it all

Another full day of different rainstorms.  Been lots of rain coming and coming to Hong Kong.
It continues to amaze how much water can come from the sky and for the length of time it just keeps coming.  The intensity of the storms just kept increasing all day.
Off to Sydney so hope we get off at a reasonable hour and aren't stuck sitting due to the rain.

Saint Paul MN - Roving reporter Mary's captures from Clemen's Graduation Party

Saint Paul MN - Clemens graduates and then celebrates

Another year another party.  It was all great.

Saint Paul MN - Touring MSP and my first bike ride of the season

I had the great pleasure to spend a good chunk of the day with Clemen's dad Paul and show him around a bit of the Twin Cities.
We had a great wander, many conversations and a fine lunch at SpoonRiver to finish it off.
And then the weather and my schedule of activities cooperated so I could get in a bike ride with our group and enjoy some other Twin Cities sites before graduation day went in to full gear.

Saint Paul MN - Clemens Graduation Round One

One of my favorite events of the Macalester School year is the International Graduation Celebration.  It is a great event celebrating all of the International Students and the great four years they had at Mac and around the Twin Cities.
It is fun to meet and experience with parents and friends that are in the Twin Cities for the first time and loving every minute of it.
And it is a nice finish to a four year adventure that I have had with each of my guys that I have had the opportunity to enjoy this day.
