Almost Had the Moon
I almost had the moon in the palm of my hand. Unfortunately, my photographer ran out of patience before we found the perfect angle.

Shy Mandarins
I asked Graeme to give the mandarins smiley faces. Somehow, a few of them came out looking shy, suspicious, or mildly concerned. 😂

You Are Alright
Bare feet, wet hair, calloused hands, ungroomed nails and apparently very little ladylike decorum. I had quite a list of things wrong with me. Graeme’s verdict was much shorter: “You are alright.”

Amsterdam to London

Such a Guard Dog
Luna takes household security very seriously — especially when Graeme is eating. Every bite is monitored. 😂
