China 26: Images

Weird food:Chicken Heart
Weather:Beautiful

Some Images from my stay in Xi'an so far:

- A family of four squeezed onto a motocycle sputters by as fireworkds explode over every building in Xi'an.

-The underwearless toddlers with a huge hole in the butts of their pants to provide immediate relief.

-The guards at my apartment complex's south gate standing erect, swiveling to face our approaching car, and the robotic salute followed by a swivel back to regular position.

-6 am. Dark. Barren, travelled street. Hot iron sparks falling from construction on the 27th floor of the shadow of a building. I think they are like quiet fireworks or even a waterfall of fire.

-The squatting men.

-The daily car accidents.

-A knocked over fireworks box furiousling spinning around shooting red, blue, and green missiles at everyone around.

-An entire basketball team sobbing after losing their one and only tournament.

-Outdoor pool tables among the stands of fruit, meat, and spices.
