More China Town Fun :-)

I MUST have a frog like this! Is this a Chinese lucky money toad? Where can I get one? Darn! So much research! *scratches head*

I thought he was brass, but looking more closely at the picture I took, I think he might have been a heavy resin. He was sitting guarding our river all alone. A few days later he was gone. I hope only good will came to him and I am so glad I took a picture of him before he departed.

I miss him. Heck, he might have been a prince! OR our lucky money toad! Drats!


While we were in China Town on Saturday, we saw a crowd and our curiosity lured us to the crowd. Here was a man painting Chinese Characters - with two paint brushes one in either hand!

The children are watching very closely.

I hope they are learning :-)

Then he painted two characters at once with ONE hand:

He then painted the Chinese characters with his TOES:

"Jack be Nimble, Jack be quick…" - Jack was definitely nimble - look at how he was stretched out! And yes he was very fast at making his art :-)


However, the best part was when he stood on his head a painted Chinese characters with is toes!

Some of the final results?

AWESOME dude!

I was definitely impressed!
