Here There and Everywhere

Expat wanderer

Sunrise, First of June, 2008

While we don’t have that seriously dark brown band of, hmmm. . . . something . . . on the horizon, there is a band of thick haze. The sun gets above the horizon, lights the clouds above, but it is fully minutes before it can get through the low lying haze for a visible sunrise.

This is what I think is ACTUAL sunrise:

Here, minutes later, we can see the sun over the thick haze on the horizon:

At 5 in the morning, it is a mere 84°F / 29°C out on my balcony, very comfortable, just a tiny soft breeze, me and all the laborers the only ones up and about so early. Well, maybe Ansam, who gets an early start on her day. 😉

  3. Hey, I beat you by almost an hour. I am up by 4 – each weekday morning, to water my rose garden and walk my Alsatian.

  4. It’s not easy to start the work week, is it, Ansam?

    Amu! I am happy to see you! You’ve been busy these days!

    WalkLike – What a lovely picture you paint, watering your rose garden and walking your Alsatian. Sounds so inviting.
