Entry 565 for Saturday October 30, 2021

The core questions:

Credit goes to Ben and readers of his blog for these “Four Questions” and the five stretch questions.

  1. What did you do today? Mostly resting; shuttling Adrían back and forth to basketball camp; some shopping; purchased tickets for the Charros baseball game to celebrate Adrián’s birthday tomorrow; watched the #Oilers beat the #Canucks in Vancouver.
  2. What did you enjoy? Spending some time with Adrián in the car was really nice and being out of the house some.
  3. What did you find difficult? The owner of the creamery slipped that he is separated from his family into the conversation. It was awkward and I did not know what to say, we’ve been customers and seeing them weekly for a decade now.
  4. What has changed? A conversation with my friend Miguel that it appears the government health officials are now prohibiting standard vaccines to those that already received Cansino in the special program for educators and education staff.

The enormous Ever Given container ship, wedged in Egypt’s Suez Canal, is visible in new images captured by the Copernicus Sentinel-1 mission. The giant container ship ran aground in the canal on 23 March on its journey from China to the Netherlands. The image on the left, captured on 21 March, shows routine maritime traffic in the canal with vessels visible every 2 to 3 km. The image on the right, captured on 25 March, shows the 400 m-ship blocking the canal.
