Public School Halloween Party, Shenzhen, China

We all have to suffer for beauty, no? At least it’s not footbinding. Who knew that Halloween, even Halloween in China, could be so painful?

Yes, there are Balloon Rides at Shenzhen’s OCT East theme park.

Ducks to the left of me, balloons to the right, here I am…..

On the pond in Shenzhen, China

I mentioned the gala Tea-themed stage show at OCT East - the grounds of the Shenzhen-based themed park are no less impressive.  The ducks in the pond area that surrounds the replica European village are amusing the watch. Ducks have always been my favorite, although in China they seem to be, more often than not, on my plate.
