I thought it was cute

I thought it was cute and asked the owner if I could take a picture. That is a great way to compliment someone. They don’t feel threatened, they just feel that you genuinely think their item is cool.

First day of work. Good thing I had nothing to do tonight so I could read and respond to emails and practice and improve my presentation. The two days to adjust to local time seems to have worked incredibly well. 

My boss has Covid so I’ll represent. It must be bitter to fly all the way to South Africa to spend the meetings in the hotel.
