Soldier Boy, Lanzhou, Gansu

Young Chinese Boy on an Outing

Next to the city lies a park with rides for children. Naturally, Bernice had to ride on most of the open rides. We encountered this young man dressed up in a soldier suit. We asked his mother if we could take a picture. She was happy and proud to have us take his picture. He most charmingly obliged us by striking a very smart salute. Afterwards he shook our hand and walked off smiling.
