Now that the wedding is finished we are relaxing a bit, meeting up with old friends and family, shopping, and walking around town.
Milk wagons. The milkmen deliver each morning to your milk box (sorry for the fuzzy shot).
Roaming coconut vendor. Check out his tool.
The "in the alley" haircut shop patronized by Sun-Ling's family (including us).
Sun-Ling's grandmother has a live-in helper who turns out to be a very good cook. Just some of her vegetarian dishes.
The Bund at night from an Audi sedan.
Twin Towers.
MacDonald's delivery with an electric bike.
With my old friend Leon.
With Sun-Ling's cousin, the director, at SMG.
Electric Bikers.
Rug Beating.
Sun-Ling's grandmother "gets around" the neighborhood in a wheelchair but is quick to pop out when needed. It's a lot of fun to take her out as she likes to buy snacks and treats; however, the local buses do not yield to wheelchairs. Yikes!
Sun-Ling and John have been traveling the earth since 2008 while blogging, eating vegetarian and vegan, and riding public transportation. We love uphill day hikes, 20th-century architecture, Roman ruins, all bodies of water, local markets, shopping for groceries, aqueducts, miradors, trip planning, blablacar, and more.

Looks like it's chilly?
Kathy, Was pretty chilly until yesterday when it was sunny and 70's - hot! Today it's raining. Warmer temps for the rest of the week. OF course that's the outdoor forecast. Indoors, it can be a tomb or a sauna this time o year. ;-)
