Thanks for that link, MD - I loved it! Hi Hazel - if you look at the Gifu site, people do walk fast there. They have to - if they stopped they would get bowled over. Hi Dona!
Back to the red and white stripes..... Liberia and Malaysia have them on their flags.

Hi Dobielvr, haven't seen you since the kestrel cam. I've just looked at the nesting box and there's not even a feather in it. I see a bit of a flag with red and white stripes.... OH!!! and a man's head!

Hi Brianna. Yes, they were old wooden sailboats. I'd love to sit at a table in that little area on the left and watch the boats go by. It looks a really interesting place.
