hehehehe you started out thinking you would negative - turned positive and then ended with a negative@ hahahaha

but don't worry - I don't have a negative thing to say about your post! I loved it

You know what I loved most???

When I can get a FEEL of the culture or experience - by looking at the pictures, then I think its time well spent! And ohhhhhhhhhh let me tell you. hehehehe there is ONE special picture - a gem among all the rest - that made me SO happy! :)

I'll keep that for last hehehe

But you apologized for taking the shot of the shop with the plant in it??? why!!! that made the shot even better in my opinion! hahahahaha It make it come to life more

The next shot that was WONDERFUL in my opinion - was the one of the women setting up for the day - WOW!!!! tht was really getting the action of the scene. I wanted to go up to each of them and say Good morning! I'm Tiger (or dreemie) hahahaha and find out about what they had in store for the day!

I also loved that you explained how so many people are suspicious of people taking pictures! hehehe Is this a common thing in the culture? Does it have to do with people making complaints about a business? Or people worrying that someone is trying to case the scene for a robbery???

You know what??? I loved that after you explained to the man that you were going to write about the store - and you did it with kindness in your voice - that he SMILED! and told you to carry on! hehehehe

I have a task for you! hahahaha

If you happen to go by his shop again - and you see him... tell him that you wrote the post, and that you wrote about him smiling - and that this made a woman (a Tiger hahaha) smile ALL THE WAY around the world from him! Tell him that the Tiger hopes that he has a wonderful day - and it was very nice to meet him virtually! hahahahahaha

Maybe he will have a message back to me - from you - and then we have come full circle again! hahahaha so fun!!!! :)

and now - last but not least!

my FAVORITE PICTURE

I would have felt the same as you... not realizing that the person's backside was in the photo because the JOY OF THAT LITTLE BOY'S FACE would have outshined everything else!

ohhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh my goodness!!!!!!!!!!! what an angel face!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I absolutely LOVED that shot!!!!!!!!! I wish that you REALLY saw him again some day and told him that HE MADE A TIGER SMILE IN CALIFORNIA! HAHAHAHA and to NEVER stop that beautiful beaming glorious face of his from smiling because he is like an angel from above!!!!

hehehehehe that shot was the best one of all :)

loved this post!!!!!!
