It's no secret that I love all things cetacean-related, like this really nice towel that I received from my friend Vania during my recent stopover in Hong Kong.

It is so nice in fact, that I'm reluctant to actually use it, for fear of getting it dirty and messing it up.
Fortunately, Vania gave me another one to pass to a mutual friend, Jenny, whom I'll see early next year. Which...conveniently...means I can use hers first and keep mine in pristine condition.
Thank you Vania! (And thanks Jenny as well for the use of your towel)
