kitchen view. if you kept following the road after the bend for 3 blocks, you'd be at our school (well, the elem & middle buildings. the preschool & secondary are somewhere else)

the subway being built (also from our kitchen)

from luke's window. looking out to shenzhen-i guess north. (dad would want to know:)

another from elliot's window. the farther apts are a new area that used to be water! they call it a "reclamation" project-what's to reclaim? the ocean? somehow they take ocean & put buildings on it. this is china-don't ask me how they do it!
