Indeed and my generation (GenX) is perhaps to blame.

If only I knew Svelte. I’m a front end dev who knows Vue, React etc.

Great motion blur and I’ve always fancied visiting this station and indeed NY. Not been yet.

Steely Dan, my favourite band of all time. One of my favourite songs of all time is “My Old School”.

I remember the thirty-five sweet goodbyes

When you put me on the Wolverine up to Annandale

It was still September

When your daddy was quite surprised

To find you with the working girls in the county jail

I was smoking with the boys upstairs when I

Heard about the whole affair, I said oh no

William and Mary won't do

Well, I did not think the girl

Could be so cruel

And I'm never going back

To my old school

Oleanders growing outside her door

Soon they're gonna be in bloom up in Annandale

I can't stand her

Doing what she did before

Living like a gypsy queen in a fairy tale

Well, I hear the whistle but I can't go, I'm gonna

Take her down to Mexico, she said oh no

Guadalajara won't do

Well, I did not think the girl

Could be so cruel

And I'm never going back

To my old school

California tumbles into the sea

That'll be the day I go back to Annandale

Tried to warn you

About Chino and Daddy Gee

But I can't seem to get to you through the U.S. Mail

Well I hear the whistle but I can't go, I'm gonna

Take her down to Mexico, she said oh no

Guadalajara won't do

Well, I did not think the girl

Could be so cruel

And I'm never going back

To my old school

The main reception areas look so impressive in this hotel. Especially the second photo and to be honest the image doesn’t really do it much justice. It’s a ceiling as high as some cathedrals I’ve seen in the past.

It dawned on me that I hadn’t shared any photos of my food here in Mexico yet. Well for you sweet toothed #nostriches out there, feast your eyes on this little medley of desserts. Yummy.

Watching the ships passing by and fascinated by this boat. So I looked it up https://www.marinetraffic.com/en/ais/details/ships/shipid:3493647

A little while back I announced that I was embarking on a photography project and to use Nostr as my publishing tool. The focus of one of my projects being the bridges of the Thames. I will return to it soon.

Thing is my head is full of ideas for content on this protocol and I might as well just go for it, to join the growing community of photographers on Nostr and to promote them broadly. So please follow, as I’m sharing profiles galore.

Since we’re in Mexico at the moment, we’ve done a little exploration and visited Tulum a few days ago. I’ve got some nice photos but since I’m not travelling with my full kit and time is always limited at such places, I feel the photos are a little bit “snapshot”.

I think this is why it’s good to get to know your own local patch and hone your craft there sometimes. I feel a greater affinity with that.

Incredible country though is Mexico and the Mayan ruins are incredible.
