Didn't feel like hiking to the Peak this morning, so I took a stroll down through the city instead, heading past Hong Kong Park, through Admiralty to the waterfront and then over to the Macau Ferry Terminal.

Busy busy Friday with scenes from the US District Court where Steve Bannon was sentenced to four months in prison, but suspended until his appeals have finished. I then ran over to the White House to take a look at Biden getting on Marine One for a weekend trip to Delaware.

Quiet Monday, but over the weekend I managed to catch the VP departing the US Naval Observatory on a non-scheduled helicopter mission. She flew up to Delaware for the day to visit the Biden-Harris Campaign headquarters. On Monday, a quiet day, we just bike around looking at some history and monuments in Washington, D.C.

The last year has seen a lot of construction making its way around the White House, and after the fountain on the South Lawn was renovated a month or two ago we had a bit of a break. That ended today though as the construction crews moved into the North Lawn and surrounded the fountain with barriers and hoarding in preparation for some new construction at the White House. Construction like this has been ongoing for over a year at the White House, but they generally move in small bits (a little on one side, then the next, then the next, etc).
After I saw the excavators and barriers being set up, I headed down to the South Lawn for the arrival of Marine One and tried (unsuccessfully) to get to Andrews AFB to see the departure of Air Force One (just saw the press plane, oh well).

Wonton Noodles, Turkey and Apples for a Hong Kong Thanksgiving.
---------------------------
PenguinSix Family Recipe for Cranberry Jello Thing
1 cup raw cranberries
1 large orange, with skin and seeds removed
1 apple, cored but leave skin on (optional)
Chop all three fruits with food processor.
1 package raspberry Jell-0
In a small mixing bowl add 3/4 cup boiling water, mix in Jell-0 and 1/4 cup of sugar until dissolved, then add 3/4 cup cold water. (You use 3/4 instead of the recommended 1 cup because you want it thicker).
Stir the chopped fruit into the liquid Jell-0 and place in serving bowl. Let set in refrigerator at least four hours—better if overnight.

I had a poll today to decide if I should show you the truckers in the People's Convoy attempting to cross through D.C. once again or take you out to the Chesapeake Bay to see the Ever Forward container ship grounded on a sandbar. The choice was the boat, but I decided to do both, especially since I also was able to get some Pit Beef.
