Double Header

Here are a couple of photographs that really need to be placed together.
Found in the local Kempinski hotel, where the observant of you will remember we lived for our first month here in China. Anyway, I was on my way to the deli this morning to pick up some croissants when I saw this teutonic take on the terracotta warriors.



These are traditional German nutcrackers, the best of which are from Saxony I believe and they are a popular Christmas decoration, but normally a little smaller...

On the way home I saw a gentleman who had 'blacked-up' making his way into the Dutch Embassy to entertain the children, unfortunately he was on a bike and was gone before I could take his photograph.
