1. The San Diego Zoo. Come spring the clothes come off and interesting fashion choices come to the for. Almost as entertaining as animal watching.
ReplyDelete2. Don't have one.
3. Depends on when my back starts hurting.
4. I prefer to sit with Balder Half if I don't have a book with me.
5. I talk to strangers if they start the conversation, otherwise I'm too shy. If Balder is with me, he always reaches out to strangers. He enjoys people and once he starts talking, I will get drawn into the conversation.
People watching can be fun, you never know what you are going to see.
