Crowded Lair
Posted Jul 17, 2009
Two and a half days after returning to the Lair I'm sort of thinking of a new flight. Still jet lagged and in need of time and peace for recuperating I find my home very crowded.
Four Lair Cats - thankfully! 
, two hatchlings - the third show up for being fed but sleeps at his own place - and a Queen Mum. I assume I should not be whining. It's the first time in several years all my immediate family - all three hatchlings and the Queen Mum - are assembled at one place at the same time.
The Lair is just not made for many people. Even though it's rather spacious the number of beds are very limited. I've got one proper spare bed in my study. 
had already moved in there when I arrive back home. Then there are sofas and foldable beds in the living room which are occupied by dragonprincess and the Queen Mum. Likewise the sanitary facilities are sufficient for less people, even if it's manageable. You just have to wait for your turn...
Sometimes there can be too much family around. Things that need to be sorted out and fixed tend not to be since the hatchlings just can take a certain amount of Nan at a time. However, it seems as the Queen Mum will visit Auntie next week which hopefully will lower the stress levels in tht Lair.

Getting closer to the Lair
Posted Jul 14, 2009
Back in the Far North again. Won't be back in the Lair until this evening, like six hours from now - but still I can read the signs again! 
Awfully 
and with aching wings though. I left bed some 36 hours ago, and 
is not easy when flying.
Miss the Lair Cats as well...

Tropical rain
Posted Jun 26, 2009
Jack the Cat and I am currently watching impressing flashes and listening to loud thunder while the sky literally is open and the rain pours down. This must be the most impressing tropical thunderstorm I've experienced - not that I have so very many to compare with.
Unfortunately tropical rain doesn't mean any cooling down, so it's as hot and humid as it was before. I've showered and changed clothes twice already today, and I guess I'll have to do it once more before hitting the sack.
Golden Fire s don't mix well with this climate, we need the Northern Cold Winds.

Crossing GFW - normal service will return in mid July
Posted Jun 22, 2009
In some 15 hrs I'm off for backpacking in China together with princess. I'm not sure if I might access HooToo from behind GFW. Some researchers do, others don't.
I intend to update http://dqontheroad.wordpress.com during my trip - but GFW might be an obstacle.
Don't put anything on fire while I'm gone!
