Post card from Shenzhen ( China) 1981






My passport stamped, showing the date of my visit to China



A day trip to Shenzhen was a break from the vibrant life of Hong Kong. A bus full of tourist like me headed off to take a peep at China across the border of Hong Kong. It rained all day and throughout my journey to Shenzhen I had to listening ear for the unhappy life of an English woman who sat next me and who had left her husband for another man!! The day trip was well orchestrated. For our hard earned cash , we were provided with a very beautiful lunch and visit to a school where all the children were beautifully dressed and were happy to entertain us by singing a song. It was a grim reality of China to witness for a day in 1981.
