Indian guy from Malaysia sells Chinese food in Singapore

It always blows my mind seeing a non-Chinese person speaking perfect Chinese. This man was raised by Chinese parents in Malaysia. His Mandarin has a Cantonese accent and his Cantonese I assume is perfect.

Bay Model Sausalito

We visited this Army Corps of Engineers exhibit over the weekend. Admission was free. In the 1950s, before computer modeling, they created a 1.5 acre model of the San Francisco Bay in a giant warehouse. Everything at the exhibit is stuck in the 1990s. It's worth a look if you're in the area.
