Pow Wow...

Everytime I say "Pow Wow," a certain Bon Jovi song pops into my head. So I only have a few pictures remaining which I took, IN EXISTENCE. Some awesome ethereal being made me save a few on my camera, which is not the same awesome ethereal being that made my Dad delete everything off of the computer. Accident, of course... I should be more careful with where I store my photo's; all 18 000 of them.



So picture A is a picture of a chief called, wait for it, "White Lightning." Yeah, it's pretty hardcore. I took a photo of him and didn't realise I was close enough to be included in the ceremony, let alone to get struck.



16 Chiefs gathered to join in on traditional dance and ... traditions, obviously. While members of one tribe sang, others struck their drums in synchronisity, the dancers did their thing in a circle, rotating, round and round. There were a number of interesting things one could watch out for, including a man in a motorized wheelchair who persisted to join in regardless of the feathers and traditional dress he was lacking. However, What caught my eye most was this thing:

It's a GIANT ICE-CREAM MAN!


That is all, as I myself don't know what it was doing there. Regardless, White Lightning did not seem to be lactose intolerant, which sucked of course, because there was not going to be epic battle for me to shoot.

On a side note -{HA! CATCHY, maybe not}- I saw another Ice Cream man down at VEMF.

As far as my life is going at the moment: Awesome. Things seem to be falling in place. My cellphone seemed to have fallen out of my pocket last night too. I was in a park, and when I came back in the morning - because you can do that in Canada - I found it covered in dew and water. It works, but there is water in the screen. As well as this, I spent my time between 06:30 and 08:00 picking up garbage and drying wet benches (I swear, the Gardeners think that watering the wooden benches will make them grow). The grass was really thick in the Mediteranean Gardens - which no one goes to - and I got my shoe's soaked. I don't think the crazy hole at the bottom of my shoe helped either.

Today was also my first day working at the gate, handling a lot of people's cash, a lot of the time. Actually, all the time, and always walking, and squeaking and walking, and squeaking... faster and faster and squeakier and squeakier. I got the job done, though.

Another job I need to get done is organising my photo's. I have too many, and too many people want some uploaded/surrendered to them. Tomorrow I will be doing all of this. Because it is the new month, I have another 100 mb's on flickr, so my slideshow I posted earlier will GROW.

Also, a toast to serendipity.
