Soon be driving back to Jingle Jangles.

Sights in Wuxi.  We, that be my son Tony & I, did some walking while we’re in Whiskers.  Here’s some of the sights and observations I had:


‘The wet market on the doorstep.’  A grocery store had this sign The term ‘wet market’ has ominous connotations for Westerners because of the story told that the Covid virus had originated in a wet market in Wuhan.  


Kids playing keep away with a basketball.


Walking along a street full of life and energy.  So many restaurants and shops.  I wondered where they got all the people to work in them; I wondered about the individual circumstances of the workers.


A big piece of cow meat dangling from a hook at the front of a barbecue shop.  The locals find such a sight mouth-watering?


All restaurant workers have to wear Covid era masks.


Good looking women walking unaccompanied.


Later walking in the dark near an empty lot.  Where did all the people go?

Didn’t sleep well.

 This is not so much a getting up view as a middle of the night view.

Would have published the view five minutes earlier but I had to take a poo.

 Lunchtime! I did takeout from a Lanzhou noodle place.

 Wow!  24 hours exactly, I took a morning view photo.  However, today, I arose fifteen minutes later than yesterday.

 This is the view as I wait for my son Tony to come home from school so I can grill him about economics.  

I was looking at a sample chemistry exam that Tony will have to take on May 3, and I have to admit that I was out of my depth.  Not having taken Chemistry or read anything about the subject since 1982, I going to have to hope Tony can explain it to me.


Jets and Celtics both lost their game twos thus negating their home advantages.

 No noonday view.  I had lunch at the school mess hall.

I’m fit to be tied.  That’s what I’m thinking now that the day is over.  What happened ?  I will reveal all in a bestselling tell-all book.  ‘Really ?’ you ask.  Ahhh.  I could just be saying.

I have the car.  I want to drive it somewhere but I’m stumped as to where to drive.  I guess I’ll stay in the apartment tonight.
