A heavy snowstorm in Dalian
A heavy snowstorm hit Dalian this week. There was limited Taxi available for 2 days due to the bad weather. I was able to make it to work by walking to Zhongshan Square to catch the bus to the IBM location. Actually the traffic was quite excellent because of the absense of the crazy taxi drivers :-).
Dalian has not had a similar snowstorm in several years and this particular one was a rare one. It lasted 2 and a half days (Lucky me!). But I was prepared this time. I brought enough winter gears this time after the home trip last week -- a heavy jacket with a scarf and a hat knowing that the cold weather in Dalian will continue for at least another month yet.
These are the support staffs at the IBM site. As I was walking back from lunch at IBM campus, they wanted to take a picture with me in the snow for display.
