Flashback- Burgermeester

I've finally gotten settled down. I have found a perfect little house and an exciting new job. I have taken a hiatus from the Watermark, as I havent had steady internet connections, and have generally been too busy to sit down. Apologizes.
That aside, here is a photo set from a great little burger place in Amsterdam; Burgermeester.
They offer a multitude of one-of-a-kind patties, ranging from standard beef to seared salmon, and vegetarian options like pumpkin and goat cheese.  If you can't decide on one, try a trio of mini-burgers.
A well designed, simple interior creates an exceptional dining atmosphere that's open and breathable, a scenario that can be lacking in the land of constant rainfall. If you're ever in Amsterdam, make sure to stop by. 
(Also, a couple of wheatpasting from Hero de Janeiro.)

Paris Bike Polo.

The guys at Paris Bike Polo were kind enough to let me tag along, on three occasions, to their sessions. The first night was similar to the first day of elementary school. Distance is kept while the kids that know each other stand in a circle, comparing their toys and sharing their juice, or in this case- bikes and cigarettes, and the new kids stand aside. One gentleman lent me his bike to play, and upon realization that I was no liability, they warmed up to me. By the third time I met up with their crew at the beautiful background of the Invalides area of Paris, they were offering me Red Bulls and offering me their bikes (and helmets) as though I was an old friend who happened to catch a flat on the ride over.
Great players make for great polo, and Paris has 'em.

True story.

First Look- Paris.

Here are a few shots from Paris. Also, a nostalgic picture of my old studio. It is missed dearly every time I see one of these well executed public works of art.

Photo Set- Le Moulin Bregeon, Departure

Off to Paris tomorrow. I cannot express how excited I am to get to see the city and its inhabitants, but the end of these kinds of things is always bitter sweet. C'est la Via.
Here are some shots from the Japanese wedding (video to come!) and a snapshot of Jon teetering around.
