World Wide Wednesday in Brazil
“I see that it is by no means useless to travel, if a man wants to see something new” Jules Verne
Enjoying the Solitude
A game of solitaire
In the fresh open air
Solitude and silence
This place, is priceless

World Wide Wednesday in Brazil
“I see that it is by no means useless to travel, if a man wants to see something new” Jules Verne
On the River Negro
On a slow boat
Down the moat…
(The needle on the record hops with a screeching sound)
“Sorry, wrong track!”
On a slow little ship
Down the River Negro we slide
It’s just a short trip
Into the beyond and open wild
Fishes and dolphins
Jump up from the waters
The mermaids a calling
So lock up your fathers
No place for golfing
Only a trek for the trotters
On a slow little ship
Down the River Negro we slide
It’s just a short trip
Into the beyond and open wild

Storms in the Horizon
Looks like a storm is rising
With heavy hanging clouds in the horizon
“No worries, it’s just rain, not poison”
She said with an evil smile, quite surprising

Cloudy Skies
Cloudy skies with a chance of… meatballs?
Nope not here, just a little warm rain fall
So outside your respective derrières haul
And plays some Brazilian football…
It’s soccer, you sucker!

Day Break
The day is breaking
The world is waking
Window view, breathtaking
I can feel my whole body shaking
Now in the making
A few memories creating

Welcome to Manaus, Brazil
In the rain forest of Brazil
You can feel the thrill
Sailing down the river Negro
Quite the incognito
A glimpse of the dolphins
Can raise the endorphins

A stormy day by the Pool
They said the sun would shine
The weather would be just fine
So I will sit here
In my poolside chair
Enjoy the day not so fair
No matter if I like it
It’s no use fighting it
This is my holiday
On a not so sunny day!

Stormy Weather over there…
But maybe not here?
There is some storm front on the horizon
With some bad weather arising
From a snapper’s point of view, quite mesmerizing
For the natives up there, possibly poison
But as they say, it’s quite typical for the season

Toupee blowing Weather
The wind factor so high
It would make Trump’s toupee fly
This is a time for one of Takei’s “Oh Mys”

On the Streets of Vienna for World Wide Wednesday
“Österreich ist eine kleine Welt, in der die große ihre Probe hält.”
Friedrich Hebbel
Space Oddity in Vienna
“This is ground control: Major Tom, please respond: over”
“This is Major Tom: over”
“Major Tom, we have located your space pod: over”
A moment of silence on the receiving end before response:
“Um… Where exactly did you find it: over”
“City of Vienna, Austria: over”
A muffled “oops” is heard from Major Tom’s end:
“O-K, ground control. Um, any chance you could give me a lift there?: over”
“Roger that M T! By the by, we do not seem to be able to track you on the device: over”
“Well, I am kind of in a situation here…” odd noises heard on the background, “What if I just send my coordinates and you can send vehicle, OK? : over”
In the ground control, quick typing can be heard and in the distance, a loud O.M.G.
“Ah, we got your location. Sending extraction right away: over”
“A big thanks, ground control! End transmission”
Back at the ground control, the two officers are staring at the screen where the location of Major Tom is blinking. The other officer turns to look at the other one:
“I can’t believe he actually ended up there…”
“Yeah, me neither”
The officers continue to stare at the blinking screen, both shaking their heads in disbelief…
And what was the location where Major Tom had ended up in?
Well…
