Ossi also has a bike now and we both make nice tours in GZ. Today we thought to cycle to Shamian. The way goes along the Perlriver and then we have to go over the river on one of the 5 bridges along the way. The stairways lucky have a small bicycle way. Normally Shamian is a very charming old place. There is a alley of big trees along old western style buildings. Many couples use the place to make couple shots or even newly married pictures. Our goal today was a coffee at Starbucks there. But the alley was ripped off. There where uge wholes in the street, lots of materials on the way. It was muddy and dirty and dangerous to go with bike or even to walk. Finally we reached Starbucks. With coffee and cake we sit happy in their nice garden. Glad we just finished when a compressor started next to us. Black clouds of smoke came out of the far too old equipment and we hurried to get out of these place.
Due to the upcoming Asia games in autumn the government wants to make GZ a clean place. Since month they rip off all walk ways. It takes a long time before they tile everything new and it's hard for us to walk or cycle safely in the moment. They are planting tons of new flowers and it looks in the beginning very nice. But some time later I see them dying because they not getting enough water. The money the government is spending for that purpose is as just throwing it into the rubbish. The people living here must swallow all that nonsense and I feel sad for them.
Anyway Ossi and I love our excursions on our bycs and will continue.
