Tea with a vew of .....


the lonesome fisherman.....



who lived in a house on stilts..
between modern civilization and tradition..



and when evening comes....
the fisherman returns....

and before you know it..
 he is out at sea again the next morning...



and as for me,
I simply soaked in this moment....
of peaceful surroundings...
appreciating the quietness..



as I sipped my English breakfast tea...


at the Eastern and Oriental Hotel , Penang



a lovely weekend indeed....

follow Kimmie for more tea stories and have a Happy Tuesday!!

Tea story on the ancient tea horse road.....


I couldn't help but sketch this from an existing  picture....
they say in learning to sketch or draw, practice is a good mantra... :))

the scene is a group of villagers transporting tea through the mountains in China..



this is a 8 x 16 inches ink sketch and watercolor wash..


and since it's Tea Tuesday  hop over to Kimmie's and find other
tea enthusiasts and their wonderful tea stories....
while I get my cup of chinese white tea and do my share of blog hopping....

Happy Tuesday!!
