Ba Ba Black Sheep🎵

Do you remember that old song from when you were a kid?: This sheep looks like the kind of sheep who would sing that song 😛 **He is one of the stone statues at a mansion in Gongyi, Henan, China. Some of the statues are centuries old!

Ba Ba Black Sheep,
Have You Any Wool?
Yes Sir, Yes Sir
Three Bags Full 🎵
One for my Master
One for the Maid
One for the Little Boy
Who Lives Down the Lane 🎵




Door Blessings

Everyone is hanging up door signs asking for good things in the coming year. They remain up until next year’s festival. Ours says ‘Blessings’!😂What would yours ask for?

A Touch of Winter Magic

If you’re planning a winter vacation (because it’s too hot outside and you’re already wishing for winter!), I highly recommend #Harbin in northern #China!  Their #IceFestival is something children can only dream of. Real reindeer, ride in a sleigh, gorgeous sculptures you can actually climb!  One of the most magical sights I’ve seen in my life and it lived up to all my expectations. 

Also, you can find more of my pictures from Asia on my website ‘A Life Savored’ at  www.ALSfoto.com
