On the walk from the campus to the metro station along Wushan Lu (Lu means road) we passed a man diligently making flowers from
duct tape and other kinds of tape. This photo is for you Jane. He would have been able to give you a few pointers. Next time, if he is there, I will buy one for you to examine.
Then in Hong Kong last week (more on that later) we saw a crowd in the Apple store. Whatever came out in Hong Kong on November 17 was causing a mob scene. The next picture is for Anna Lee and whoever else loves Apple.
The last random thought is about our apartment building. It is 9 stories high and does not have an elevator. Also, in the evening the lights in the halls are controlled by noise sensors. So, while we are in our own apartment we can hear people making noises at every floor as they climb the stairs. It is usually a "hoo" shout and it turns the lights on for a few seconds. When we come in, a heavy stomping sound is enough to turn on the light in the hallway. And, a good "hoo" works for us too. This is one of the unique sounds from Guangzhou.
