In some ways I never felt as at home in China as this moment, when we were walking through a massive crowd of folks all shuffling through the People's Square. It was non-stop being pushed from behind as people made their relentless way, and it reminded me of being in Japan at Obon holiday time.





Traffic was crushed to a complete stand still, and we just surged around the stuck taxis and buses.




The dog train kept rolling by, and I was finally able to snap a picture.
