Cecile: Hunka-hunka-burning love. Arni: Some REALLY uber rich guy parked his humongous penis yacht right in front of the Santa Barbara Harbor and Yacht Club. The seagulls were not impressed.

 

Cecile: Irene and Carson in the morning fog at Mesa Beach. Arni: Oh yeah, it’s Burger Season!
Home-made burger with caramelized onions, sauteed mushrooms, cheddar cheese, fresh avocado, lettuce and tomato on an onion kaiser roll.

 

Cecile: At the weekend farmer’s market. Arni: Apple looks so good that I had to give it a try…

 

Cecile: Last minute weekend camping trip in the mountains with the guys, asian-style. Arni: Jon is protecting his face from the tall grass on the way back from Red Rock swimming hole.

 

Cecile: Firing up the balloon just after sunset at the Filmore Balloon Festival. Arni: Looking down into a ballon through the top cap while inflating.

 

Cecile: Poor-man’s macro. Arni: Bee in the backyard.

 

Cecile: Spiral staircase inside the Santa Barbara Courthouse. Arni: After an exhausting search for the right one I am finally the proud owner of a bike again. I just hope that this will not become the 8th bike stolen from me…

 

Cecile: Jobless, I happily find myself spending most of my time in the kitchen refining my so-called cooking and baking skills. Arni: The day before the Worldcup final a family is playing soccer at Mesa Park.

 

Cecile: Happy birthday, USA! Arni: Welcome (home) to Santa Barbara, Cecile!

 

Cecile: Stray cat Sammy came by for his afternoon feeding. Arni: Happy Summer Solstice! This girl was riding her dads shoulders at an open air concert and trying to reach a huge beach ball which was bouncing above the crowd. Her over-bubbling delight was absolutely adorable and contagious.
