London scenes
Enjoyed these quick ones inspired by early morning runs around the Thames near the Strand. Too much sky for my little brush but I am quite happy with the result

Thanks for a beautiful visit - I ❤️ HK
What an amazing city. First but not last visit. A little sketch to remember it by. Thank you for the warmth and hospitality.

Which Bonvoy hotel in Hong Kong?
We are travelling as tourists to Hong Kong for a few nights next week and want to book a Bonvoy property. There is a large choice but wondered if any one had a recommendation for the best combination of hotel quality and location? W gets good reviews but location seems quite modern / removed from the trad vibes. Any strong preferences from locals or visitors? Thank you in advance.

Half way on 11 day trip from Rhine source to Düsseldorf
Started in Andermatt and routed as follows, sometimes on Euro15, sometimes Komoot-lottery-route, sometimes the road if we needed to make time.
Day One - Andermatt to Bad Ragaz
Day Two - Bad Ragaz to Konstanz
Day Three - Konstanz to Bad Säckingen
Day Four - Bad Säckingen to Freiburg
Day Five - Freiburg to Baden-Baden
Day Six - Baden-Baden to Heidelberg
Day Seven - Heidelberg to Oppenheim
Day Eight - Oppenheim to Bingen
Day Nine - Bingen to Koblenz
Day Ten - Koblenz to Bonn
Day Eleven - Bonn to Düsseldorf
So far very enjoyable: couple days was too hot but opted for hotels with AC. This is bikepacking de luxe, I admit. Rhine worryingly low but Swiss/Lichtenstein/Austria/German bike infrastructure is very good.

Rental with private pool
Couple looking to go to PS on November for a week for the first time. We want a room with a private pool, or perhaps a villa but still want to be relatively central. We’d prefer not to be in a private home via AirBNB. Does anyone have a reco for a hotel / complex that offers this? All the ones I look at have shared pools.
