Dog in Seattle airport
| « prev next » | |
The year of Dog comes. It was said "every dog has its day". Every 12 years, the dogs have their own year - the year of dog.
I will spend the Spring Festival in Beijing with Wendy this year. It is a special year for us. In my blood, I believe there is still lot of Northern China. I am more aligned with the culture in Beijing. To live in Beijing for sometime was part of our dream - finally, we can make it true.
Let me share a picture of my toy dog with you:

Happy New Year for everyone!
P.S. The twelve-year ban for fireworks was unlifted this year. Till 2:00 AM, the bing and bong are still everywhere in the city. It is good that the ban was lifted. Shanghai does not ban. In Luoyang, although fireworks are still banned, but no one enforce it. When I call back home, my talk was sometime interrupted by the background explosion of fireworks.

Posted by: bo on January 30, 2006 6:59 PMHi! I am so glad to find this site. I am from Seattle but currently living in Shenyang, Liaoning Province. My boyfriend is living in Heng Mian, which is near Zhou Pu, which is near Pudong...I was hoping you could help me out. I plan to fly in and surprise him for a visit for his birthday, but I've never been there and can't seem to find a map online that shows this area. I'm guessing it's because Pudong, and Shanghai in general is developing so fast. Anyway, I know you are SUPER busy, especially during this holiday time, but if you could shoot me a quick email directing me how to get to this area I would be eternally grateful!
Thanks so much!
Dawn
Thanks Grace! Happy New Year to you too.
