Lost in Nanjing

I have come up with a new past time. I go to the local bus stop get on a bus and ride to the end of the line. Now the smart thing to do would be to get back on the same bus and head back. I've never claimed to be smart. What I do most of the time is go for a walk and get on the a different bus and try to find my way back. Once by myself I rode the bus to the end, walked around, found the subway, walked around and then tried to find a bus back.

These excursions would be easier if I could read all of the street signs, in Nanjing, but they are in Chinese characters. Some do have pinyin along with the characters, so there is always hope in finding the right street.

In case you think I am the only silly person who does this; I got the idea from one of the other teachers here, Jerry. we gone together a couple of times. So far I have been successful and although my legs are pretty tired when I get home; I have seen some pretty interesting sights. You can see them too.
