Only one person said they'd already found a place. Mr. Wu, my impromptu tour guide, has a short list of places he plans to go look at. He thinks he'll be out in two weeks. The workers tearing down the homes next to the older couple who'd lived there for over 50 years said that people have until May 1st to get out. The government gives them some money, and they have to find their own place. (Comment wherever you want, there's no wrong section.) We asked everyone we chatted with where they plan to go.

These pictures are amazing Joel. And these buildings don’t look any different than the ones in “To Live”. Where will these people move to when their homes are demolished?
