Life in Zimbabwe, Africa! Living in the jungle in our thatched roof hut near Victoria Falls, tallest in the world (borders Zimbabwe, Zambia); Niagara Falls, largest volume of water (borders Canada, USA), and Iguazu Falls has the widest falls (borders Argentina, Paraguay, Brazil). My bucket list is done! My favourite is Iguazu!

Technology is so cool sometimes. I am sitting at the airport https://ortambo-airport.com/index.html in Johannesburg for my flight to Cape Town, South Africa while listening to the awards ceremony for Professional Photographers of Canada, British Columbia in Kamloops, BC, more than 16,000 km and 9 times zones away. To my surprise, I won the PRESS award for my image "Extreme Sports come with Extreme Danger". This picture was taken at the surfing competition U13 in Cascais, Portugal. The young boy was fine, and got back on his board to surf the next wave with confidence and courage.

I will miss my buddy at KOOZA by Cirque du Soleil. I had so much fun with Catalina in the past two weeks in San Francisco. With a 4:00 am wake-up call, it's time to fly to 5678 Showtime in St. John's, Newfoundland

Girl's only 2 weeks together, Santé D'Amours Fortunato, Catalina, grandmaman. Yesterday was a fun day together. Catalina loved her new barrettes. She wanted me to put them all on her head. She loves riding the carousel, and watching sea lions at Pier 39 in San Francisco. Today, Sasha (papa), Alexandr Yudintsev performed in Florida in Corteo by Cirque du Soleil (3 weeks to go), and Santé Fortunato (Circus Artist/Artiste de Cirque) was getting costume fittings, learning cues, and rehearsing. Catalina and I went to the pool (outdoor heated at the hotel), I walked 10 km while she slept in her stroller, danced together in the living room to the music of Corteo by Cirque du Soleil, and consoled her when she asked Papa or Maman. She is now sound asleep after a hot bath. Special moments I wold not trade for anything.

After spending time with our family, it's time to share some of those precious memories. On a quiet Sunday afternoon, I would like to share a little of Sheu's family who walk in step. Amadeo sees his dad work on 5678 Showtime every day for the past month, and Amadeo picked one of his expressions "Oh S**t". He loves to say it because he knows he should not say it. Tavira likes to play hide and go seek with grandmaman. I hid in the bath tub with my camera, and caught her with a big smile. Mariah is a strong maman able to carry her two babies, weighing 65 lbs.
