Qingdao (WPC 20)

WPC 21 took place in Qingdao China… honestly, not my favorite place to visit. I had been to Qingdao once before for a quick business visit, but to a more industrial area. This time we were staying in a hotel on the coast – I guess this is somewhat of a vacation place within China.

When it wasn't insanely foggy, the beach was kind of a cool landscape. This boardwalk didn't run everywhere, but there was some sort of path along most of it.

It wasn't really a sandy beach, and we weren't quite sure if these were natural or remnants of something man made.

I don't know what these are, but they were scurrying everywhere on the beach.

This is a close up of one of the centipede like guys. They'd usually scurry as soon as they felt footsteps on the rocks.

We saw a couple of these little crabs to, but they were more elusive than the bugs.
