But all he ever does is just sit there. And demand money if you look too long, take a picture, or look like a pushover. Then, if necessary, bang cane on box to incite the donation. Ultimately, proceeds with face-to-face confrontation demanding the money (in Mandarin, of course). Sadly, he had to give up at my "Ting bu dong" -- I dont know.
Nice color palette.
Really like this one.
Need to find out what this means.
I like the graffiti-style chinese characters on the right side.
Contrary to my expectations, this place didn't burn my nose off, like much of China's streets do. You think you're just going to get ice cream, go to the market, and eat at a restaurant -- but no, my friend. You are being exposed to constant breezes of raw sewage and many awful things all at once....makes my eyes water sometimes. Never smelt anything like that in my life.
The fact that we see blatant sewage runoff pipes decorating the beaches, huge industrial cargo liners cruising so close to shore, janitors driving boats around to sweep up algae and trash in their green nets, and janitors on the beach as well -- it all is very offputting to convince oneself to "jump in." However, You will see either ballsy young males in speedos or in their boxers (sometimes in their full slacks and belt) jumping in, but you will also see the older men who take ocean swimming very seriously -- with the wetcap and bright ball indicator tethered to their trunks. 
The red, non-neoned sign at the top is for Trust Mart, the native Wal Mart of China. The place offers serious bargains that dont allow street market vendors and even local shops to really compete with its low profit margins, given its enormous size. They sell everything from groceries, cooked food, clothes, appliances, toys, sporting equipment (including bikes), media, and even have their own food court -- and not in the sense of a 1/2 of an aisle portion as it might be in a Ralphs or Albertsons -- either these sections have at least an entire aisle or an entire section.
Lotta sleepers today.
I think this one is epic. Definitely a favorite. The guy trying to ignore the situation to his right really completes it.
apparently, they're heroes here.
A. Have you seen a disco ball outdoors before?
