Skipping Work
I am not exactly sure what has been going on around the school the past week. It seems that there is some type of 'sporting' event to be staged soon. The footpaths have been converted into mini sports fields. During the week I have seen 'teams' practicing three legged races, some type of 'transfer water from one container to another in bowls' game, some very strange hoola hoop thing and then today this. Groups of people skipping. I am not sure if the people are teachers from the local school or workers from the very large China Mobile building nearby but they have been having an absolute blast.
I must say though, that the lady in the orange pants caught my eye with some wonderful skipping skills (and smile).
I have a feeling that people in other places may be a little too self conscious to be doing such crazy things on the footpath en mass. That's one of the reasons I love Chinese people so much. They are so simple and lovely.
