Looking down Caoyang Road

Sunyi Road is on the right. A sweet potato seller, flowers and books for sale.

Life on the corner of Shunyi and Caoyang Roads

Looking south down Shunyi Road.

Don't even think about drinking the water. Why would these ultra filtered water supplies be on every corner if you could?

The Kedi to he left of the entrance. Open all hours - and you can pick up a video in the evenings from a street seller if you want something to watch. She's there every night.

The main entrance from Shunyi Road. A few Christmas decorations at this time of the year.

Life in Shunyi Road, Shanghai

The postman has arrived - but nothing for me today

I live in the building on the left - 28th floor of 35 floors

"You can't have hot coffee and cold dessert. You'll get a stomach ache!" Here we are next to Chamate - Yi Cha Yi Zou (one tea one seat) - Yi Cha doesn't have coffee that's why. Next time we'll go there for some Fujian tea like Tieguanyin.

Is that a real Christmas tree?

In front of the many Christmas trees - Livia nd Celia

In Xujiahui Park. A winter's afternoon strolling in the park after lunch at Tang Ye Qing Feng (Xi'an restaurant at Shanghai Stadium Metro stop)

Sunday afternoon at Xujiahui

Xiao Ji, Xiao Xiong and Xiao Wang (Livia, Joan and Celia). Christmas is coming and decorations, carols and Christmas cheer are everywhere.
