So_lyk_goed_gebraaide_skaap.jpgASADO - the Argentinian way of grilling whole sheep426 viewsMy late Father, Juan Enrique Henning, was born from Afrikaans parents in Argentina in 1917. He taught me to grill the sheep like they do it there. A 20kg lamb will take 3 hours to be complete cooked. The sauce is "salmoira", meaning "dead salt" and is a very tasty mix of herbs and spices together with the salt. This lamb was grilled for my dear mothers 75th birthday. We had a big jol !!!showyourphotos

tame_or_not.jpgAre they ever tame360 viewsThese so called tame lions and tiger looks like they see their lunch. The boy is Joshua Muller, son of the brother of my wife. The father took the photo while mother had a panic attack. He managed to capture it before she called him away. The owner of these animals walk around inside the camp. Just look at how the male lion focusses on the boy while licking his lips. This was in South Africa.showyourphotos

Woodpipe1-200dpi.jpgComposite pipe technology from 1920327 viewsSabie museum, South Africa. I have been working in the composite (GRP) pipe business since 1992 and noticed this pipe with great interest. This is a sample of the pipe imported from USA to water the citrus trees ca. 1920. The woodwork is made the same a barrel is made. The steel wire gives it extra strength to handle pressure. Today we use FibreGlass for reinforcement and easily make mass production pipes with a continues process at speeds of 30-50 meter per hours and for pressures up to 32 bar.showyourphotos

Paint_inside_bottle.jpgMessage in a bottle? No, just our names.323 viewsI bought this bottle in the Qingdao Int. airport shop. The theme of the PAINTING inside, yes really inside, the bottle is of two swans together for life or something as romantic anyway. The woman offered to paint our names inside and I agreed simply to see for myself how they do seemingly impossible task. I hope the names does not effect the art, but at least our (wife and mine) names are inside the bottle. She said the painting took 24 working hours. showyourphotos

A_customer.jpgShe sells to people calling from the appartment above303 viewsThis woman drove past and then stopped to take an order from somebody shouting from the building above her. This is not unique to Chine because street venders can be seen all over the world. What is unique is the fact that I was confronted by a very aggressive young man when I took the photo shouting "why", "why" in my face. I have been questioned many times when I took photos of non-tourist items of interest. showyourphotos

Willie_hold_up_the_pisa_tower_-_we_just_had_to_do_it.jpgThis is how the leaning tower of Pisa was fixed so it does not fall over.295 viewsMaybe you didn't know, but the tower of Pisa was falling over more and more over the last few 100 years. It was pushed back after 1992. The tip moved about 500 mm for the tower to be in the a stable position where it was 100 or so years ago. The tower was falling while they build it and was never straight. Now there are several rumors and theories of who fixed it and how. Here is my theory with proof: Willie, a no-nonsense engineer from South Africa, simply pushed it back a bit and now it’s OK. Well doshowyourphotos
