Earth Hour 2012

We supported earth hour at home from 8.30pm to 9.30pm.  When we looked out from the window, we realized that we are probably the only household using candle light.  Hopefully there will be more people doing this next time.
 We took the chance to do homework together.  It is nice to use candle light since we have to stick close to each other so that we can share the candle light.  There is also no other source of distractions such as TV, smartphones, gaming devices.

At the end of the hour, Jonathan asked if we can do earth hour everyday...  :-)

Lotus Bulb


I saw this beautiful lotus bulb this morning. I can't to take a closer look and discover that it is even lovelier up close.


This is how it looks right from the top. A nice hormone of yellow, white surrounded by pink.
