Another packed week. A lot of work. And especially grateful that I am this busy when so many university graduates are struggling to find jobs at this time of the year. If you're reading this (and if you're trying to find employment), my only advice is 'good luck' and 'never, never give up'.

There's something out there for someone. Including you.

Just got back from Shanghai where I bumped into Rui Chenggang at the airport. We were both flying to different cities. It's funny because we don't see each other that often in the office and, when we do, it's only for the 20 minutes or so we sit next to each other during 'News Hour'.

Anyway, quick blog...  I'm going to be short on 'words' and big on 'pictures', so please take a look at the photos I've posted below. With China so often in the news, it's not hard to find great shots across the website and because I read the online papers everyday, I usually save the images I enjoy best.

I wont' describe each one... maybe you can guess and let me know what each one is? After all, life is all sometimes about interpretation and a lot about imagination Thanks to all the photographers for sharing their talent. And for their vision of what our China is today - its colour, its mystery,  its fun, its beauty.
