A picture a day of the City of Springs, Jinan, China
We all know who discovered and refined tea, the Chinese. Yesterday a friend and I were invited for tea at a Communist training center. This big wig, who’s also an artist, poured us cup after little cup of Chinese tea. Note how they warm the pot by pouring water all over the outside of it.
I’m not sure what the message is though. Why no heads?
I came across this canine as I explored some of Jinan’s hutongs.

Everyone is welcome to participate, even if your blog isn’t about photography.
Here’s how it works:
1. Each week, we’ll provide a theme for creative inspiration. You take photographs based on your interpretation of the theme, and post them on your blog anytime before the following Friday when the next photo theme will be announced.
2. To make it easy for others to check out your photos, title your blog post “Weekly Photo Challenge: (theme of the week)” and be sure to use a “postaday2012″ or “postaweek2012″ tag.
3. Subscribe to The Daily Post so that you don’t miss out on weekly challenge announcements. Sign up via the email subscription link in the sidebar or RSS.
Here are the prices for various massages at our local masseuse. They use traditional techniques and it’s very basic here. No soothing music or babbling brook sounds.
I haven’t summoned the courage to partake yet. I admire Diane and Paula who were regular customers.
I can’t read Chinese, so I’m not sure who this man is or what he did to get honored on the side of this building. Therefore, I’ll make up an answer and I take him to be a poet until someone corrects me.
