Row Of Leaves

Some darning done into leaves.  I think I have three? more bands to go.

More Rivering

Don't look for critters in the foliage.  There are none.  It's just the bank we bumped up against, with a few flowers.  You can see some birds if you look closely in the other photos.  The boat, by the way, was obviously cobbled together from several older boats.  The pontoons didn't leak, but the engine did give out a few times.  Did I mention there was no dock?

Flapped

I am going to call the earflap done.  I also got a lot more done on the blue bumps and will be starting on the green below them very soon.

The Kwanza River

We took a ride up the Kwanza River, about an hour and a half south of Luanda, on the same day we visited Miradouro.  The boat ride was about two and a half hours.  We saw no wildlife outside of birds, lots of unnamed vegetation, and this bridge that was being worked on.  It was, at least, a pretty day to be out - and the rain held off until we were back in town.

More Miradouro From Me

More of the big vista of Miradouro.  It's beautiful, but I really want to see it from the bottom, too.



Blackwork About To Be Restart

Well, I don't know what possessed me to use filament silk to do blackwork.  I tried to continue more when I picked this up last week, but it was frustrating.  There's not much started on it, so I'm going to restart - with twisted silk.

Miradouro do Lua - MyVersion

The past sets of photos were from Andreas and his Nikon.  These are from me and my point and shoot.  His, of course, are better, but I got some bits he didn't.  Mine mainly reflect my fear of going over the edge.
