Angel Island

Monday, August 6th, 2007

This Saturday I went hiking at Angel Island. It was a pretty awesome day; the weather was nice, and there were some amazing views. You can see all the pictures here.

Here are some of my favorites however:

Mmm. Yes that was a large boat of Sashimi at the end of a long day outdoors.

I spent about 2 hours discussing the technical and scientific details of cameras with one of my friends, and now I really want a nice $1000 one. Do I really need another hobby? Especially such an expensive one? Ponders…

On Sunday, I went back to the Asian Art Museum to finish the galleries. I took a few more pictures there which I added the gallery here. I am going to buy a membership so that I can go back on the special members only party nights when the new exhibits are unveiled. That way I can schmooze with all the rich Asian ladies. The current temporary exhibit is pretty awesome; it is a collection of wook block prints from Yoshitoshi and the similar but much later manga of Tezuka. Yoshitoshi had a pretty disturbed life, and it shows in his prints which are also quite amazing in their similarity to the more modern stuff. Unfortunately photos were not allowed in these exhibits, or I would have digitally copied every piece. Anxiously waits for next exhibit.

Also, am now desirous to visit the Huangshan, the Yellow Mountain. I think I will go there in the spring.
