Surrounded by paintings of the Dalai Lama, my wife and I reflected on the temporary tranquility around us.
As Australians on a short vacation in the US, we would feel hungry at odd hours.
In this photo, we were entertaining ourselves with our new digital camera, just before the lunchtime rush in this hip restaurant + bar.
We were waiting patiently ... as the restaurant was not ready to take our lunch order at 10:30am :-)
