National Day

Happy birthday People's Republic of China! You're 62 years old this year and everyone gets next week off to travel home and celebrate. Well, everyone actually just gets Monday through Friday off and then has to work next Saturday and Sunday through to the next weekend. On Friday morning, the elementary school close to our neighborhood must have been having some sort of assembly because the PA system was extra vociferous. Normally, there is some morning singing and/or address, but I think this was a longer send-off before the holiday. Here are a few shots I took around showing the extra decorations that had been put out.
