Pedestrians

Cross the street at your own peril. Pedestrians do not have the right of way, even if they are already in the cross walk, even if the stop light is red and the walk sign is green, even if they are small children. Luckily, in Xili Town, our section of Nanshan District in the city of Shenzhen, the traffic is quite light so we don't wait too long to cross the street. Still, I grab Isabel's hand and we scurry across as quickly as we can.
