BUSY IN CHINA, PHOTOS STILL GET TAKEN...

CLICK ON PHOTOS FOR CLOSE-UP VIEW.


This Family Ride, VESPA is a Smooth /Chinese Ride.

Our Classes are burying us with work...
I have to read and correct 300 essays
students are sending me on email.
This is in addition to the 300 in class
papers they wrote about their recent
vacations...This takes a load of time
and effort, and truthfully, we are
lagging in our blog a little. So here
are recent photos we took...


This is another brand. I have a fondness for these vehicles in China, even though many have nice cars, ...


These Trikes Rock and what still rules is the bicycle as still the reigning king of transportation.



Walked though the park.... Strange things in the water.
Showed the SUME Motorcycle DVD Jonathan made of our family vacation to my 8 classes this week....They just loved it, They have to write a paper about this DVD. They also want it on You Tub...as they called it.

I have emailed Jonathan to see if he can do that for China!

We have received several gifts from English students from our classes. Dana got flowers one night and I received this beautiful, painted inside art piece in a fancy box/case. What is it I asked?

You would never have guessed either...



"A Snuff Box".

Google it and look it up...





This little guy stopped me walking home and wanted his photo taken with me and then me with his girl friend.

So I did that today.

He is quite aggressive in his attempts to be my friend. After I said good bye, left him and started walking home, she showed up again in front of me and we talked some more...

I told him I could not take him to my house...as he wanted...

What do you think he is up to? This is the mystery of the day.

He did say that he bought items of clothing at the local markets and sold them on the Chinese E-bay. Sounds interesting...but what is he all about...

Speculations are welcome on this blog's comments...

I read every one of them.
Saw this worker taking a Chinese Siesta in his work truck.
At the market these ladies were making chinese barbeques, with some rasty, smashed meat and pork fat.
I did buy some fresh chicken today... Here is a fresh one, who was looking at me...saying in Chinese:

"Hey Coo Koo...What choo looking at?"
