Here is a nice view of the downtown St. Louis taken yesterday after an event in the Jesuit Hall in the St. Louis University.
The American presiding reverend father who had spent eighteen years as a presiding priest in a Catholic church in Lagos Nigeria had graciously given us a tour of the Jesuit Hall where the priests lived, and of the view from the top of the fifteen-storied building into the church across the road and the city at large. A great experience.
Pictures taken over a long period of people taking pictures of other people, or getting their pictures taken.
The flooding in Pakistan, according to UNICEF has affected an estimated 15 million people. It started in July2010 due to the monsoon rains and has claimed the life of about two thousand people and rendered millions homeless. Read more about it on Wikipedia and on the BBC.
In continuation of our history of intervention in places in need of help, I want to call on interested readers to take some time to donate something to the relief efforts through UNICEF. One little donation can go a long way. And what’s more, if you would send me the proof of your donation, I promise to send you picture prints and postcards from KTravula.com, depending on where you are around the world.
I’ve come again, haven’t I? I remembered how last year I brought out my collection of photos for you to help me select from in order to decorate my wall. Well, I’ve given all those ones I printed away to people who wanted them when the time came. And I’ve looked at my apartment and office walls again today to find them really bland. They need colour and vitality, and I need your help to decorate them again. I’ve come to you for help.
Like last year, all I need is for you to rate the pictures choosing your best three in order of your preference. They are ten of my favourite. It could help to ask which one of them you would want to have on your wall.
I appreciate you taking the time. Ah, who knows, maybe I’ll send some postcards your way too. Cheers.
