Okay, just one more post...

On my last day in China Brad, Xian and I went to Dongmen Market in Shenzhen. It wasn't so much a market as a giant shopping area. Street after street of shops and food stands. Meat on sticks was the popular food of choice. Squid, pork and lamb, grilled in a delicious spicy sauce. Yummy. We wandered around the shopping area for a while, then dug a little deeper into the less-travelled areas and discovered a secluded neighbourhood with a narrow alleys so full of character it felt like Indiana Jones could jump out at any moment. It was the China we all imagine it to be.

Meat stick garbage.

Burning garbage in the street… because he can.

Food market of the beaten track.















This is a photo from a while back. These girls wanted their picture taken with the freaky tall woman!
