June 1, 2007: Three-year-old swims with whale



The swimming boy is Yang Yang - he's three, and he's been swimming since he was one. The beluga whale is all white... it's the one on the right. Together they swim in China to mark June 1 as the International Children's Day.



Teh boy is a natural, but the whale is a stronger swimmer.

It looks like something out of a childrens tv show.

Lucky Yang Yang is from China and not Japan or he might be turned into play lunch.

Well that's an interesting way to enforce China's one kid per couple rule.

How come he's got green togs in one pic and black togs in the other?

He must have had two swims that day.

Dunno. I think I'm waiting for the midyear sales to start so I can rejuvenate my own lingerie drawer. That could be it.

Or...I could just be responding to the threads...

Or, maybe I'm horny.

It must be a chick thing.

I was organizing the digital photos (big job >60 thousand photos.. eerrrrg) and came across a set of DaughterofV and her cousin taken about six years ago. They were working on a science project, a very involved science project that had to be built outside because of its size and complexity. There was fire, power tools, safety glasses and work gloves. They built an incredible edifice and I took 20-30 pictures of the process.

She looked so cute, so young. Some were funny with her holding the propane torch with one hand and her hair back from her face with the other.

Upon showing the recently rediscovered set of pics to her, her very first reaction was "I don't remember those pants."

wtf?

You had to find out sometime... she said that so you wouldn't suspect you're being raised for food.
