Spring in Shanghai….photos from the grounds of the Dorm - April 5, 2014

 My Chinese colleagues call this a different name, but sure look and smell like lilacs to me. Gorgeous!

 I found a greenhouse while meandering through the grounds last Saturday. How cool! The door was open, but no one was around, so I was able to peek in. Another "secret spot" to sit by.

 Roses are in bloom everywhere, too. So very pretty!

Keeping in mind, I have to carefully step around the construction everywhere

I have made it look  "prettier" than it is……….it is surrounded by construction crews, hammering, drilling, painting with really toxic material, and the constant welding.
