Hi friends! I was disappointed to discover this week that it appears that China is censoring my blog (and all other foreign blogs hosted by blogspot that I have tried to access so far). I was surprised and saddened by this because my blog seems innocuous enough. I hope it will only be temporary. Anyway, as you can see, I've found a way around this, sort of. I can post, but I just can't view my own blog here. More on this situation as it evolves. The photo to the left was taken in SuZhou last weekend. I really enjoyed listening to these three perform traditional music and snapped this photo while they took a break. This photo was taken in the neihborhood they call Zhou Zuang--the "water town" of SuZhou. (The photos on this blog are clickable if you'd enjoy viewing them in a larger size).
