Hoppy New Year

Our world became white again overnight, but this week we are putting on our snowblinders and looking straight ahead to find color wherever we can. Our first sighting is from China.




A young friend currently in Shanghai took these photos at a bazaar she visited. Fortunately for us, New Year decorations were still in place from the February 3rd celebration of the beginning of the Year of the Hare. She said it was so crowded in the bazaar that when she tried to stop to take photos the crowd just kept moving her along.




We're glad she was successful at getting a few shots to brighten up what threatens to be a rather monotone week for those of us stuck in the Midwest snowbelt.
