Adorable Chinese Girl So, maybe the full title of this photo should be what I realized after I took the photo: "Adorable Chinese Girl OMG I Think She's About To Pee On The Street". But she didn't. She was just in that position. And her pants are kinda funky. Or maybe those are leg-warmers or something. I don't know... it's all confusing. Her mom was right by her, sitting on a set and eating rice. She smiled at me, and was very excited when I was taking a photo. Or maybe she was laughing because she thought it was funny I was trying to take a photo while her daughter was about to go to the bathroom. I really can't say! But I did see lots of kids go to the bathroom in the street, on sidewalks, and this sort of thing. Not all the time, mind you, but they would just drop their business right there in the middle of a busy sidewalk. - Trey Ratcliff Read more here at the Stuck in Customs blog.
The Streets of Zermatt After dinner one evening, I went out with my iPod to explore the streets alone. There was a light cool rain, but it didn't bother me a bit. It added to the mood and everything felt great. The warm cabins, the cool sky, the wet streets, people hurrying to and fro to get warm food and drinks... I do my best to capture this feeling all in one image. - Trey Ratcliff See the rest of this blog entry here at stuckincustoms.com.
Bridges in Zurich I love these old cities that are centered around a river with dozens of little bridges that cross to and fro. It vexes me why Austin (or hundreds of other cities) have not centered the whole city around the river. Maybe it has something to do with flooding or something... I'm not totally sure. But whenever cities try to start a big development around the river later in the city's life, it seems a little bit forced. There is something very organic around these older cities and the river that feels more right than a master-planned complex. - Trey Ratcliff Read more here at the Stuck in Customs blog.
