San Francisco

Via Digg.com I found this hi-res picture of San Francisco in 1906, after the huge earthquake.

I uploaded the picture on my flickr, but the original version in on wikimedia. 

If you're looking for more recent pictures of this wonderful city, take a look at my San Francisco collection.

This post is just to remember a great holiday I had in Japan in summer 2005, with doubleimp, and to point your attention to the wonderful pictures we took in that month.

Someone asked me to add the picture below to the "Minami-Senju", a neighborhood in Tokyo. I did that.

So, here you can find the complete set of pictures taken in Japan and here the blog - in italian - I wrote during the journey.

Marie, RIP. Eyak language too

Honestly, I didnt know anything about the almost-vanished Eyak language. Today I read the last page of the past issue of the Economist (with the annual subscription to the print edition as a great gift from my brother Vincenzo and Annalisa). The article is about the death of Marie Smith Jones.
