This week’s photos are all from the second half of 2016 when I was still pretty new to Shenzhen. Unfortunately I barely took any actual photos then and only have two good ones. So today I’ve got this photo of a goat I saw somewhere in Shenzhen back then

Something that didn’t take me too long to learn after arriving in Shenzhen is that Shenzhen has some very impressive sunsets. I’ve taken a lot of photos of them over the years but this was the first

I did a lot of wandering around when I first got to Shenzhen. It was good for getting my bearings around the city. This shot Max took of me I think near the Window of the World theme park on one of our wanderings

Unfortunately during those early days wandering around Shenzhen I didn’t usually note where I was when I was taking photos. Sometimes I can tell but often, like with this photo, I’m not really sure and can only guess

Part of settling in to a new place is figuring out your routines. And an important routine is shopping. This market was near my apartment and I bought a lot of fruit and vegetables there my first year in Shenzhen

A city as big as Shenzhen lights up at night, and not just the buildings. If I remember correctly these photos are from OCT Harbor near the ocean. The area has some stores and a lot of restaurants and a bunch of lights

You can get these guys at McDonald’s in China right now. I didn’t know what they were but I kind of liked them so I looked them up and I think they’re Fry Kids, which McDonald’s has used in commercials to promote French fries

Last week I posted some photos from when I first arrived in Shenzhen so I figured I’d post some more photos from my early days in Shenzhen. This photo is from the roof of the first apartment I lived in in Shenzhen. It wasn’t a very tall building but it was tall enough to have a pretty cool view

Once I got to Shenzhen I started wandering. I’d walk around where I lived or worked or go to a new area to see what there was. There was no goal in mind I just wanted to see what was there

Shenzhen was the first big city I lived in. Before I arrived I’d only lived in much smaller places. Zamora was the biggest and nowhere near the size of Shenzhen

The park near my apartment has a little pond in the middle. I’m not sure if it’s natural or not but it’s a nice backdrop to photos. This is one of the best shots I’ve taken at the park and you can see the pond just a little bit in the corner

Shenzhen is a pretty big city but it still has quite a lot of parks and green areas. Those parks are pretty nice looking all day but there’s something about the sun peeking through the trees as it’s setting

Shenzhen has an airport so you can often see planes all over the city as they fly away from or into the city. I’ve never really gotten a good photo of them but that doesn’t stop me from trying. This shot was one of those tries from a park near my apartment

This part of Nanshan isn’t very close to where I live so when I go out I have to make sure to take a lot of photos. I was near this bay a couple years back and took a lot of photos of these boats

This was actually our fourth day in Shanghai because I forgot to film the third day. For our last full day we saw the incredible Yu Gardens and went on a boat ride on the Huangpu river

The Shekou area of Nanshan is in the southwest part of Shenzhen. You can see the ocean from a lot of places there but I hear that in the past there was less land and more ocean until they reclaimed some of it.

Shenzhen is a good sized city and has a number of districts. I live in Futian district, which is fairly central, and this week’s photos are all from the Shekou area of Nanshan district

It's National Limerick Day!

Ya know, what we do is similar... A rhythmic pattern, a lot of silly, a titbit raunchy, and playful humor more clever than it has any right to be!

"Commedia Dell’Arte a theatrical art,
Improv and mask and slapstick to start!
Often quite bawdy,
And sometimes is naughty,
A comedy loved with all of our heart!"
