An elevated perspective on African wildlife: George Steinmetz’s African Portfolio
I love this excerpt from the About Flying section:
The whole thing packs up into three bags weighing less than 72 lbs (32 kg.) which is the limit for standard baggage on most commercial aircraft. Thus I enter most countries without significant problems from customs or aviation authorities. I don’t need an airfield for take off or landing, only a clear area a little larger than a basketball court.
I’m a few months behind on pop culture, besides what filtered through on our travels. Just heard Adele’s Rolling in the Deep for the first time today. Wow.
Also, am I wrong for finding LMFAO’s Party Rock Anthem (song and video) totally catchy? (3 comments)
