Andis Kaulins in ChinaThe adventures of a Canadian Expat Andis, his Chinese Wife Jenny and their son Tony who live in Wuxi, China. November 25 Boy Tony at Xihui Park: The first batch of photo and video.November 25, 2009 is a day that will forever be historically significant. Why? 'Cause Tony went to Xihui Park. That's why. Video of Tony approaching Xihui Park
Tony walks to the Nine Dragons (not Seven) Thank you Lizzie!!
Lizzie deserves 1 billion dollars I will have to give Lizzie 1,000,000,000 AKIC Dollars. For she is a frequent AKIC blog reader. I wanted to tell her about Tony pushing the shopping cart but she told me that she had already seen the video. Atta Girl!!!! Let that be an example for the rest of you rare AKIC readers. She also informed me of the mistake I made about the number of Dragons. Tony goes to Wuxi's Xihui ParkSeven WTUs (Boy Tony videos) taken
Since I took a lot of video, I will talk about the things that happened today that aren't on video.
Monkeys make Tony laugh
To see things through the eyes of a child is to see things anew. I am paraphrasing someone, probably Chesterton, when I say this. The Wuxi Zoo is nothing special. But Tony appreciated it nonetheless because he was seeing things for the first time. He loved the baby elephant, the Zebras, and the leopard that growled at him, and feeding the monkeys. But he was particularly impressed by the monkeys playing in the cage -- watching them engage in hi-jinxs, Tony laughed and laughed and laughed.
I, taking Tony's view, was impressed by the strength and grace of the Tiger.
Look at the Laowai
Someone actually took a photo of a Laowai and child.
Fog or Smog?
The view from the top of Hui Shan (mountain) was disappointing. I don't know if it was because of fog or smog.
Gratitude, Acknowledgement, Request
I have been trying to do this for a minute every hour the past few days. I haven't been consistent.
Thanksgiving in America
What I liked about American Thanksgiving, being a Canadian, were the Thursday Thanksgiving NFL games.
Uploading
I have got some uploading to do: WTU 471 to 477.

Tony Boy UpdateI have the following things to tell you about Tony:
November 24 They are back!My wife and son are back. Lots of video has been taken.
I haven't disappeared or done a runner.
Tony and I may go to Xihui Park on Wednesday.
Finished watching GWTWIt has taken me nearly 45 years to finally watch Gone With The Wind. Some things are just so famous you fool yourself into thinking they have seen them. Anyway, GWTW is a fine film. Clark Gable gave a dynamite performance, as did the woman who played Mammy. Still, the movie is a chick flick.
Now, I will go read up about the movie on wikipedia.
November 23 Wuxi Andis Vlog NineThis short Vlog was recorded in a back alleyway near my school. I have always thought the view there was cool.
Go up the alleyway, pictured above, and you will pass Kevin’s Curry House and then hit Zhonghsan Road about where the 85 degree bakery is. Abandoning Text Blogging? Of course not.Don't stop Expecting Brilliant Observations from AKIC The Marxist-Leninist who runs this site is trying to insinuate that I have decided to make more vlogs and so do less blogging. Nothing can be further from the truth. I am merely enhancing your AKIC Spaces experience with more video.
