We're In Shenzhen Today

Wednesday morning and we're off again to start shopping.  Glad to be further south where the long-johns and hand warmers are no longer necessary.  The pollution level has been pretty bad compared to past journeys.  You finish your day and you literally feel gritty!

This is what it looks like.  You find yourself trying to take shallow breaths, subconsciously attempting to avoid breathing it in.

Remember, that China burns a ton of coal!  Heating and cooking are done in the rural areas using these preformed hunks of coal.

The pollution does make for some moody photos though.

I have a ton of photos to upload but no time right now... I'll put some more up when I get a chance.
