Kids went to work with Greg on Labor Day

Greg's office. It's a little small but holds about 4 people around his little table. I would say it's an 8' X 8' room.  The formaldehyde smell is so bad he has an air filter that he runs all the time.

Anna is adding some pictures to Greg's white board in his office.


Walk to Greg's office

Bamboo forest next to his building.  Bamboo must blow over easy.  They always build this wooden structure around it to keep it standing.

Cool turtle pond. It's outlined in brick the shape of a heart.  The turtles get to sun all day on the sand island. What a life!!

Jackson had to carry his Mac Air laptop to work like his daddy.

Greg works on the 1st floor of building 10.

IBM complex

I guess "Innovation Park" is similar to RTP.  Lots of businesses in this area.

These stones are next to the walkway on the street.  Greg thought they were tombstones.  He asked someone and they said they were decorations. I thought they were sitting stones in the shade, :-).

We were walking down the pedestrian sidewalk and all of a sudden, a car horn blows behind us.  This care was driving down the sidewalk behind us.  We had to move out of the way.  The kids are really learning to be aware of what's coming at them from all directions.

For our IBM'er friends, there is a Lenovo site across the street from IBM.

Ok, this was a very unusual tree.  It's in the area where Greg tries to find lunch each day.  The kids called it the Dr Seuss tree!  It really looked like one.

To go along with the Dr Seuss tree, there was this fake bamboo forest too.  I'm not sure which of these were the strangest.

Area that Greg eats lunch each day.

Some options for lunch.  I think I would skip it.

More lunch options, :-).  Not much English in this area.

  1. Dr. Suess tree is made of what? Glass? What an apt name! Are you getting your Chinese conversation classes?
