Pic o' the Day Appendix A - Wedding

These are some pictures that I wanted to include as Pics o' the Day, but that didn't quite make the cut. Then I realized that there was no real need to cut things. So, an indulgent final wrap-up from the Pic o' the Day Project.


At the wedding. Some weddings here have an MC. He's giving the groom a hard time about making promises for the future to the delight of the guests.


What's a wedding without firecrackers? No wedding at all. These things can be seen (and heard and smelled) at every wedding in China. Just put them on the sidewalk or the street and light 'em up.


With all those firecrackers, you gotta have some water nearby just in case. This is from a Chinese middle school. This is the place to wash your clothes. In the winter, it can get a bit ugly. Students' hands start to swell and turn interesting colors because of washing in the cold cold water. For me, just washing dishes is a painful, unpleasant business.
