Life in China 2016: A Picture A Day, June 14 – We have quite a lot of bamboo around where we live, in fact, the main street we live off of is even called Xinzhu Lu (pronounced ‘sheen joo loo’). That translates to New Bamboo Road, although here, I have never heard the English used. Just as people carve graffiti in hardwood trees, here, the bamboo has quite a bit of graffiti carved. Another circumstance when I wish I could read what all has been written!
