P.O.S.H.


This is dusk as the sun set over the Ironman in Port Elizabeth, South Africa (affectionately called PE). At dinner tuesday night I learned the origin of the word posh, and being in an industry where being in, stylish, posh, is the name of the game it was super neat to hear. Apparently when people took oceanliners to and from Europe it was desirable to sit where you could watch the sunset--and coming from the US that was Port Out, Starboard Home... How great is that?? I'll take the sunset side any day.
Happy Friday!
