Gone Fishin' in China

In Chengdu, I spent the afternoon buying and giving fish food to children at the park. They fed the "goldfish" in the pond and were delighted when the carp sucked the air at the top of the water. The fish were so thick that the duckling could actually stand on top of the fishes backs! The little guys below had a really great time watching the action after tossing the food into the water.You don't have to speak Mandarin to know that he was asking me for more. I don't know how long I did this - maybe two hours or so. The children were such a delight to watch. Chinese children have their hearts wrapped around my finger!
