Wake Up Call

Sometimes I wish I had the words to describe the unique smells, tastes, smells and sights of China.

Every morning I wake up to beautiful  music and some well, different singing. It's different from what I am used to, but it's not bad. The music begins at  6:30 am and lasts until 9 am.  Most  participating musicians seem to be senior citizens. I've noticed that most people walk by this group and don't stop to listen and to watch the look of joy on the musicians faces.

The men on the right are playing the erhu. The erhu is my favorite instrument. It is a two stringed Chinese instrument that sounds like a violin but is more pure, soothing and beautiful.

The ladies are singing in the traditional Chinese Opera style.
