Photographed lots of details to compare to KI WWI remains. Some were WWII, some 1980s! Had to sort through in less than 3 hours. Needed three more days on board!





Can't imagine being an engineer on board.


Looks familiar.

There is food and picnic lunches.
Birds. Lots of birds. Both foreign and domestic.
 

A lot who are partially footless.

Trees, like a variety.

Old stuff.
 

The War Memorial. Built when there was just the one.
 

Only bathrooms now. The actual memorial is closed, which is sickening considering the amount of money that flows each day. Millions. But not enough to remember the men, women, and children who died.

I want to remember her. To experience the kindness of this one.


Her beauty and humor.
