Three blond foreign kids together in Tianjin? They'd be mini-celebrities! It's all looking really green and nice now, but when we got here in the winter it was cold, all the trees were bare, no colour, and people weren't out as much. When our bus rolled into town we thought, "Oh man, where have we come?!" Now people fish, take naps, read, chat, play games, exercise, walk their dogs... there's actually not that much green space in the city (though they are working to change that), so I guess people want to take advantage of it. That one old man... I think he was just sitting, I'm not sure. All these photos are ours, except that arial shot... that was taken by a friend from the TV tower up the street. I just put the words on. How would Joseph and Catherine and Nathan feel about being famous (see the previous post)? Three blond foreign kids together in Tianjin? They’d be mini-celebrities!
