The canals of Suzhou are steeped in ancient history, dating back to 514 BC
Slowly cruising up the canals, was like going backwards in the “Time Machine” to those olden days in Suzhou.

G'day, and welcome to my blog site. My name is Ivor Steven, I live in Geelong, Australia. I'm an ex-industrial chemist, and a retired plumber, and a former Carer of my wife(Carole), for 30 years, who suffered from severe MS. I Write poetry about those personal thoughts, throughout and beyond my life as a Carer. I've been blogging for over 2 years, and writing poems for 19 years. Of course a lot of my poems are about my favourite subject Carole, but since I've been blogging my writings have become quite varied, humourous, mystical, observational, and even a few monster/horror poems.

Stunning! It IS like you have traveled back in time! 🙂 Love seeing the canal, the boats (are they called boats?) and the buildings. Are those homes or shops or some of both?
HUGS!!! 🙂
