Random Days

A couple of weeks ago there was a knock at the door. A maintenance man and a hotel employee came in, tried to tell us in Chinese what they needed to do, then proceeded to go into our spare bedroom/office. He climbed out the window, not sure how with the bars across the window. A few minutes later the gal came out of the room with this gigantic icicle they pulled out from a drain pipe - I guess!  Then there was another knock at the door, another employee came in with a bucket of hot water and dumped it out the window all over the maintenance man - not sure why she did it that way. Whatever the reason was, mission was accomplished and they left.

 

 

 

 

So, we were walking home from the  market the other day when I spotted this very unusual fire hydrant - Not sure if it is for really short dogs, or to prevent from some random person from opening it up, or if someone will need a job to replace the tiles after the fire department breaks through the sidewalk to get to it - but there you go

 

 

 

 

By the way - here is our Thanksgiving dinner - Yummy!!  (no, it isn't a turkey burger but a real beef burger with real bacon!!)   :)
