Only in Asia

 
This week I'm posting some items that may make you smile, sigh or have no reaction at all. I've noted these as I walk to work, teach or travel. They made me sometimes gasp, sometimes smile, and sometimes say 'I can't believe it."
A sea can converted into a home-just add a couple windows and leave it on the lot-squatter's rights. This is just behind where I live. The laundry hangs on the fence just outside the home.
 

I spotted this as I walked the streets of Macau -they've tapped into an underground spring and send the water through plastic pipes and collect it in barrels for their make-shift home-free running water for sure
The children caught a big green shiny beetle. The little red head on the right was informing the others that Chinese people eat bugs 'you know'.
A lime that forgot it needed some more fruit inside-the pith just kept growing and growing.
 
 

An electrical cord running from the swimming pool to provide power to a
construction site putting up an escalator to a tower.
 Note the backhoe on top
of the building-How do they
get it up there?
This fella is delivering gas bottles on his motorbike.
On our way to the lounge and outside of the elevator a rack of frozen ribs - mmm- is this where they're meant to thaw and will they be served on my plate?
