Sights from the City....

China's Most Precious Resources...(just a note, Allen always asks permission when he takes a person's photo.)

Handy form of transportation
Noodles of every kind imaginable...this is at the Trust*Mart; now owned by Wal*Mart
A fish-lover's dream....
People had told us that China has a rich abundance of fresh fruits and vegetables....just be careful to wash them thoroughly...aye, there's the rub. You wash them in a chemical, but isn't that also harmful?
I have great admiration for the Chinese, who over many years have learned to eat whatever is available to them.
From the open-air market not far from the local Chinese equivalent of Wal*Mart.
Walking along one of the many tree-lined streets of Guangdong University for Foreign Studies - this university gives Bachelor, Master and Doctoral Degrees. It has a large faculty of foreigners.
Kentucky Fried Chicken; Chinese Style. The burrito-like thing is burning-hot chicken; the cole slaw is a mixture of corn, carrot, cucumber; and the drink is a fruit drink...what can I say; it's downright delicious.
The students were on the field doing their marching drills as we walked past...one young voice yelled at us: "Good afternoon, how are you?" All the students giggled and repeated the phrase. Here are two of the girls from the marching class.

  1. Just so you know, Dipsy is Beverly Murdock. Anyway, just wondering--is there any chocolate there? Love the hand sanitizer on the Kentucky Fried Chicken tray! I think between the chopsticks and the food you have a ready-made diet!

  2. Another way to get around the washing with chemicals is to just peel the fruit/vegetable. :)
