	In the land of the Red Dragon: Caldey Island
		From a distance Caldey Island seems like a lurking predator, lying low in the water, waiting for any hapless soul to come to close and be devoured, chewed upon and spit out again into the world, changed forever.
		It is the wild things on this island that recharge me, not the cultured tranquility of the village pond and the offices.

		Unfortunately, the island seems to have been leased to Japanese companies engaged in pearl culturing, so it may be difficult to visit this part of the bay.
		At the midsection of this island is the port of Van Don, which in the 12th to 14th centuries was a thriving exchange point for traders sailing junks from China, Japan, and Java.
