where the sign posts are somewhat amusing:
where English is definitely still a foreign language:
where a man haunts his own house with his spirit before the Communists took over the property:
where knock-offs are popular:
where the old meet the new:
where an alley decides the luck of a people:
where safety doesn't come first:
where entertainment and exercise machines are free:
where an old way of life is still being lived:
where a threat of violence is always present:
but where changes for freedom are slowly making their way in:
More observations to come later!

re: bank of china pic
it's better to be servered than severed =)
did you get a chance to use the prayer chamber?
When my father-in-law got a number to be...umm...served, there were sixty people ahead of him. I think he would almost rather be "se[r]vered" than wait that long.
D and I prayed just outside actually. There was a quiet space nearby and we sat there and prayed. There were a number of people (all individually praying) in that room already.
I saw those colourful exercise equipments in Shanghai too!
