Chiesa nel parco
Abbiamo vissuto in un appartamento bello e spazioso in un complesso di quattro costruzioni un blocco dagli studi di PPI. Eravamo gli unici stranieri nella zona, in modo da ci siamo levati in piedi fuori. La gente locale era amichevole e le protezioni al cancello erano sempre utili. Abbiamo avuti due camere da letto, uno di cui si è trasformato in in ufficio del Lovy, due bagni, una cucina cinese, pranzando la stanza e la stanza vivente. Abbiamo vissuto sul pavimento di quarto ed il nostro balcone ha trascurato un'intersezione occupata che ha fornito molto intrattenimento. Abbiamo goduto in ritardo - i pranzi di notte sul balcone che guardiamo la parata di sera di umanità qui sotto. Era sempre occupato, sempre cambiando secondo l'ora o la stagione.
Appena attraverso la via dall'ufficio erano il parco di Zhongshan, un'oasi nel mezzo dell'occupato, throbbing e la sezione rumorosa della città. Era oltre sei isolati quadrati con fogliame tropicale pesante, gli stagni, i canali, i giardini cinesi della roccia, i ponticelli, i campi per il cervo-volo, i banchi ed i lotti degli spazi all'aperto di erba. Durante le fine settimane, si è ammucchiato con le famiglie con i bambini ed i grandparents.

APPROVAZIONE, la ammetterò. Gradisco alcune canzoni di Natale. Non così tanto “Rudolph la renna Rosso-Fiutata„ come alcune più tradizionali di quelle.
Così ottengo una scossa dal sentire queste canzoni cantate in cinese. Thinking that some of you may feel the same way (you all seemed to really enjoy the Hakka Jingle Bells song), I decided to put together an album of Chinese Christmas music.
This album contains secular kids’ classics like “Jingle Bells” as well as religious classics like “What Child is This.” Some songs sound like they are sung by a church choir, while others are .…

OK, I’ll admit it. I like some Christmas songs. Not so much “Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer” as some of the more traditional ones. So I get a kick out of hearing these songs sung in Chinese. Thinking that some of you may feel the same way (you all seemed to really enjoy the Hakka Jingle Bells song), I decided to put together an album of Chinese Christmas music.
This album contains secular kids’ classics like “Jingle Bells” as well as religious classics like “What Child is This.” Some songs sound like they are sung by a church choir, while others are more playful. Some of the songs’ sound quality is good, while others’ are abysmally low. The melodies are familiar, but the lyrics are all in Chinese. Oh, yes. You need this to make your Christmas complete.The Sinosplice Chinese Christmas Song Album (~40 MB)

Lovy and I were high-school sweethearts and were married for forty-three years before her untimely death. She had worked and put me through university and contributed mightily to the financial stores of our maturing family.

About Lovy
Lovy and I were high-school sweethearts and were married for forty-three years before her untimely death. She had worked and put me through university and contributed mightily to the financial stores of our maturing family. This adventure allowed her the opportunity to retire from being a certified dental assistant and enjoy a totally new life, and China, which she did.
Lovy Catherine Edinger was her official birth name. Her father, Phil always wanted a daughter with that name. Of course, her name always got attention. Imagine sitting in your dentist’s chair receiving your regular check-up and the dentist says to his assistant, “Lovy, please pass the suction tube.” What thoughts would go through your mind? At work, Lovy was called Lee.
When at a party or shopping in a crowd, instead of me calling her name out loud, we had a signature call, “Yoo hoo” that she responded to, knowing I was looking for her.
When we met new people who reacted to her name, I would suggest that it was her name that was an important factor in our long-term, stable and happy marriage. In any normal relationships, there are times of anger and frustration as was in ours. I found it difficult to Read the rest of “China Chapter Four: A Wife in Shanghai” or post a comment
