Till We Ain't Strangers Anymore

Till We Ain't Strangers Anymore"
LeAnn Rimes

It might be hard to be lovers
But it's harder to be friends
Baby, pull down the covers
It's time you let me in
Maybe light a couple candles
I'll just go ahead and lock the door
If you just talk to me baby
Till we ain't strangers anymore

Lay your head on my pillow
I sit beside you on the bed
Don't you think its time we say
Some things we haven't said
It ain't too late to get back to that place
Back to where, we thought it was before
Why don't you look at me
Till we ain't strangers anymore

Sometimes it's hard to love me
Sometimes it's hard to love you too
I know it's hard believing
That love can pull us through
It would be so easy
To live your life

With one foot out the door
Just hold me baby
Till we ain't strangers anymore

[Solo]

It's hard to find forgiveness
When we just turn out the light
It's hard to say you're sorry
When you can't tell wrong from right
It would be so easy
To spend your whole damn life
Just keeping score
So let's get down to it baby
There ain't no need to lie

Tell me who you think you see
When you look into my eyes
Lets put our two hearts back together
And we'll leave the broken pieces on the floor
Make love with me baby
Till we ain't strangers anymore

We're not strangers anymore
We're not strangers
We're not strangers anymore

中國 自行車王國 (China: A Kingdom Of Bicycles)

We all are aware that china was once called a "Kingdom of Bicycles, and that perhaps the general consensus is that this is no more.  I noticed a lot of bikes and took some picture during my ten day visit in August of this year.

Global Hotel, Anshan, China, August 6, 2010


I uploaded these pictures in the lobby of the Global Hotel.  The next day when I went back, hotel security wanted to talk and see my passport, and instruct me that I could only use the internet.   I think I might have triggered some alert in the Great Firewall. 

Notice me copying my files on this completely Mandarin interface.

Golden Ladies ...

We left in the morning for Qian Shan (Thousand Mountains) National park, Babi and I.  Babi was the father of my friend in China, and not the best English speaker.  He had been in America for a while and we managed.  It was hard work for me to sort out his pigeony English.   He did, make a pretty heroic effort to show me around for three days, and I am really grateful for that.

We took a bus through some fairly interesting landscape --  ghettos and huge new construction of apartment tenements.  my notes say that we took some circuitous back road route, but my memory thinks maybe it was the normal route.

中国 -- 第三天 三百年一饺子店 (China, Day 3 -- A 300 Year Old Dumpling Shop)

August 5, 2010, Anshan, China.

I had lunch at a famous dumpling place which was about 300 years old, We had several different dumplings with a variety of fillings, incling maybe dog, goat, donkey, horse, pork and beef. Well ... hopefully not dog. I asked several times what the different dumplings were stuffed with but I never quite figured out the answer.

Pine nuts, which were yummy. 

My generous hosts.
