I actually typed a blog the other day but I still have all the little square boxes. I tried to add a picture and lost everything. I obviously don't remember those boxes well enough. I will try to send separate blogs today so this gets to you and to learn the pictures. I want to send some Chinese New Year pictures from work later this week. I have been busy making plans for my visitors who will soon be here. My bosses birthday was last Wed. so a bunch of us went out to an Indian restaurant in Puxi. It is called hazara and is located in the Rui Jin Hotel and Garden complex. It's quite a place - very old, once ahome to Henry Morris. He was the proprietor of the English language newspaper"North China Daily News", it doesn't say when but this place has had "special significance" since 1930. It is in the French Quarter of town. My birthday is coming up and I have invited friends to an Italian restaurant at Super Brand Mall which apparently has a fantastic view and is the best kept secret in town. Come and join me on the 13th.
