A_customer.jpgShe sells to people calling from the appartment above303 viewsThis woman drove past and then stopped to take an order from somebody shouting from the building above her. This is not unique to Chine because street venders can be seen all over the world. What is unique is the fact that I was confronted by a very aggressive young man when I took the photo shouting "why", "why" in my face. I have been questioned many times when I took photos of non-tourist items of interest. showyourphotos

easy_to_push_cart.jpgThey work hard, all hours use an old fashioned effective wagon275 viewsThe one thing about China that will dawn on you as soon as you get involved is that they work really hard. They even work in shifts round the clock on building sites, something I never saw elsewhere. I took this photo because of the old-fashioned wagon when I realized that it is a very good way push or pull small heavy items around a building site. The wheels are big so it can roll over the obstacles and the load is an ergonomic height. (clever nê) - Yes, I've cleaned the lenz !!showyourphotos

The one-child-policy of China means that they will never outgrow the family vehicle, unlesss the child grows really big. Sorry mate, no upgrade for you if you use the standard excuse every Italian uses to get a really nice Alfa Remeo. showyourphotos
