Summer Palace Shenanigans

Another cultural difference.... Adults here strike the most incredibly silly poses for photos, but they are absolutely dead serious when they do so. It is hard to explain, but I guess they either have no shame or actually think the photos are true pieces of art. I tend to favor the latter, which makes it even funnier. A few times yesterday whenever Yaz and I saw some adults striking these poses we immediately mirrored them. Yaz mirrored the women, and I the men. We even doctored some of the pics up with soft focuses and other effects with my photo software to make them extra awesome.

Caveat: I am imitating what another grown male did in order to make whomever is reading this privy to the situation over here. I am sacrficing what little reputation I have to ensure that some people back stateside can get a chuckle.
