Randomness from April 2015

Weeeeell, perhaps I shouldn't have waited so long to post photos! 

Here are a few random-ish, wonky-ish photos from this past April that I nearly forgot about.  

I'm going to start with the Bad…and go from there. We'll see where it takes us!

These next three photos are what I would consider to be "bad".  Are you able to see why I would say that???IMG_1644

I took these photos on the route I take to Aeon Mall, which happens to be a few minutes down the street from us.

This lovely area is covered, and I mean COVERED, in litter, trash, filth…whatever you want to call it.  This place isn't that far away from our housing complex.  It just amazes me that this is okay with the people living here.  And yes, I'm well aware that other countries aren't perfect (UGH!  Just thinking back to spring break-up in Anchorage…it was amazing how much junk the snow could hide!).  But HOLY COW this place is just trashed!IMG_1652Moving on now….

to "snow".  

Why the air quotes???  (I'm sure you detected that those were air quotes, right???)

Well…. you tell me…is this snow in the photo below?

IMG_1866(psssst…it's cottonwood fluff!  And lots of it!  No wonder we're sneezing up a storm here!0

And this charming bucket of whaaaaaaaaaat the heck is that?  Ummm, a big NO THANK YOU to anything with the word "semen" in it. Just say no.

Can anyone else see a face in this peeled carrot or am I going nutso?  Wait, don't answer that!IMG_1941

Super Cocky?  Well, this most certainly doesn't describe me!  I think I'll just skip this nail salon, ok?:IMG_1945

These are the most bizarre fruit EVER.  I didn't buy one BUT next time I see one like this I'm buying it and EATING it. IMG_1946

Awwwwww….such sweetness.  Daddy and Baby Avie time:IMG_1943

Ava with her good buddy, Milla.  (We miss you Milla!!!!)IMG_4735Blue skies?  Wow!  I miss those days… lately it's been gray.  Very, very gray.

  1. What in the world are these fruits???
    (And yes, I’ve taken pictures of similar things as the almonds with gingko semen thingy… the things that make you wonder…)
    I love China, :-).
    So long,
