Posting from iPhone
In the early morning hours of my birthday, November 22, 2008 I stood in down town macau city. My usual walking routs were blocked off by high temporary fortifications built To contain the F1 race cars that would be zooming through the streets later in the day. The light streaming through and reflecting off of the buildings was so calm it made me stop and look up and around to take it all in. I had coldplay reign of love streaming through my headphones but I could still hear the deep rumbling echoes of the cars testing the track before race time. The sound would bounce from building to building and trail off in a higher pitch as the out of sight cars made their way to the other side of the city one by one. It was too early for there to be a hustle and bustle in the city, but late enough that the old folk were just wrapping up their sidewalk don't care whose watching tai chi. Those are the mornings I love. A new place filled with the air of the ancients. A thousand year old temple with a modern race car zooming by. Though Macau had been my home for nearly a year, I could still find adventure and uniqueness in every new day. Now I'm breathing in the same air in Singapore. What will today's adventure reveal ?
