Finally sleeping a bit better as of a few nights ago … what a difference the ZZZZs make, eh ?!  My Freddy Krueger Skin is still raging but hopefully it’ll get better soon !!  I’ve now finally seen my beloved Pacific Ocean (thank gawd !!) and figured out how to bike to it … yahoo !!  I’ve also gotten a bit better at negotiating the local buses and metro … a must for any illiterate adult wandering around a foreign city. ;-D  Uncle Jason continues to be an excellent tai chi and yoga instructor, leaving Auntie Juline on tour guide duty !!  Let’s see if I can stop babbling now and pixelate this post:

I’ve named my bike *GRUBBY* !!
Matanga !!
Baby Buddha …
Helper of lost-looking biker …
Found the ocean !!
Sun Yat Sen University …
Rooftop yin-yang !!
Pretty sure I’m not doing this quite right …
Fishing boats …
Juline makes sure the cook picks the right crabs !!
Beautiful instrument … dunno what it’s called …
Pretty bus stop …
Calligraphy demo on Cijin Island …
Drumming by Downs Syndrome kids … so cute !!
Light of Buddha Mountain !!
Art exhibit … must try to check it out …
Main Buddha shrine …
More Foguangshan …
All streets look alike … I get lost easily here !!
University bike rape !! A worldwide travesty … 🙁
Cijin ferry … will take Grubby soon !!
Sunset river boat cruise …
Live mustic on the river … this guy was GR8 !!
Another yin-yang …
Oceanview snack bar … will try to climb up w/ Grubby ?!
British Consulate Residence …
Royal Mail …
Tea … too funny !!
Custom clogs !!

A few sundry footnotes … Auntie J is a Master Foodie !!  She claims that she “doesn’t know where to play” but she “definitely knows where to eat” (and buy good food) !!  Uncle J served as President of his apartment complex association awhile back.  As such, the common area infrastructure — reading room, workout room, karaoke room — still carry his signature.  The staff here are absolutely lovely !!  Always smiling, always helpful.  Once I get up the courage to do so, I’ll start snapping some shots of them.  Perhaps they might like to adopt Grubby once I’m gone … if they’d like to do so collectively, then they can either make use of “him” or sell him off collectively and share the profits.  I’m too shy right now to suggest this to them, but hopefully I’ll work up the nerve to do so before going home !!
