A peek at my day…

32 bus, I took my seat, next to a woman, covered, didn’t speak.

Two more women sat in front of us, that’s the configuration of the bus.

They eyed each other, no vocalization, then all of a sudden, a conversation!!

They exchanged a dialect, a language, then some giggles. At the next stop, one of them exited, I await, they only wriggled.

Quiet again, the two don’t speak, I restart my podcast, loving what I have seen.

Fast forward a few hours…

Hot day, playground, one little girl. Covered nanny from a different world.

Sheltered from sun, street & cars, the little girl toddles past the horse and the bars.

She lifts her up, high up to top, of the silver and wood slide, so she goes down, not up.

The toddler seems happy, delighted even. Then she catches my eye and smiles, two teeth revealing.

I soak up more sun till it’s time to move on. A happy wave good-bye to the pair, and I’m gone.

My life in this country fills me with delight. I enjoy the people, the food and the sites. I walk or bus wherever I go, sometimes taxi if it’s necessary, or so…

On my adventure today, many things. I made a short list, as my memory fades. Drop off this,  do that and some more. Back on the bus to head home & the man I adore.

Aloha,

Denise
