Wow, definitely will return to this library.
Modern. Impressive. Spacious. Homeless.
There is too much to talk about this wonderful library … but the bathroom trip stands out.
I saw two people sat on the opposite bench and looking dozing off. I jokingly said, hey, that’s me, always falls sleep with a book, which in Chinese, means lazy and uneducated. Then when we about to leave an hour later, I saw them at the same location.
Then I went to the bathroom and a person with big bag was behind me. As usual, I held the door … who thanked me. But for a moment, I wished for more people. Inside the bathroom, one stall has toilet paper filling the gaps. At first I thought it was out of order. But then heard movement … just not a scene I expected to see in a library. But again, it’s what life: see, learn and enjoy.
