Yes, Virginia, there is a Santa Clause (a line from a famous Christmas movie) .....in China. Some have asked me if they celebrated this holiday here and the answer is yes and no. The stores and restaurants have put up decorations and I have heard Xmas songs in the Hong Kong crossover subway station. But it isn't EVERYWHERE like in USA. This print is stuck on a spa business in my complex. It was put up in October and they have a pitiful decorated tree inside the lobby. You don't see it on TV, or decoration on the apartments, or other places. Mainly just the stores have the decorations. I did get this next picture of a tree in a KFC. So that is the answer. It really has been nice not to be inundated with this holiday. We will be back in the states when the Chinese New Year begins which is the Chinese's main holiday celebration. I am told it gets crazy around here. But in the city I live in, it gets deserted. The reason is that so many in this city are from other areas of China and leave to go back home. That makes it a bad time to be on a train or plane but a good time to get around this city. Not to worry this year. We will be back doing our own visiting with family and friends. Here are a few interesting pictures I took here and there. Well, hope you enjoyed the slide show. I am so excited about my new camera. I got a great deal on a black Friday special online. It is waiting for me at our son's house. I hope it will give me more options on picture taking. Look forward to seeing as many as we can on our return. Take care!
Love and hugs....Cindy
