Wow!  I’ve found a new definition of suicide: a pedestrian trying to cross a street in Chengdu! And that Chengdu ‘Hot Pot’ is another pretty good way to do yourself in.

A great land use policy workshop, though. I’m speaking about “Lessons from Canberra” tomorrow.

And the poet Du Fu’s cottage is much more than a cottage; it’s a vast area of quiet landscaped contemplation in an incredibly active city.

Uninhibited line-dancing, music and singing in the People’s Park and great restaurants, tea rooms and “The Alley” shops. Nice people!
