Beijing University Shenzhen hospital 6
I thought the Chingrish on the signs was kind of funny. This hospital also has a unit for assisted reproductive services and one for cervical cancer. This is also a hospital that foreigners get referred to.

The infusion room- where I got IVs of penicillin- in the VIP section of the hospital.

this sign was over a bed in the infusion room (VIP section of the hospital).
Lian Hua Er Cun view
I live on the top floor (7th) in a building at Lian Hua (Lotus Flower) Er Cun (second village) and this is my view as I climb the 7 flights of stairs to get to my place. The staircase is open air and I prefer this to being in an elevator although it does suck when you realize you've forgotten something in the apartment and need to head back up the stairs.

high rises in Futian, Shenzhen
these are probably about 30 stories high, not so tall.
wine in a can
this was a first for me. Surprisingly, the wine was drinkable but barely. Not surprisingly, the wine out of China isn't so great. I had a Canada Day/4th of July party at my place last night and several people brought the same kind of wine I had bought for the get together- Great Wall, Cabernet Sauvignon 1999. It's a tad better than the cheap Cabernet Sauvignons available in the states but nothing I care to bring back to the states or Canada with me.
Yellow Club in Shenzhen 3
In Shenzhen and Hong Kong, drinking games in clubs involving rock, paper, scissors and dice thrown via a Yahtzee style container are common.
