Acupuncture Anyone?

The first picture is the front door of a Chinese doctor who does acupuncture. I have always thought it would be cool to try acupuncture, but after passing this office everyday I'm not sure I would have nerve to step inside. In the back yard there are lots of herbs going in a fenced area. However, there is a big black dog that runs in the garden and in one corner is all the dog's poop piled up in a big pile. Is this part of the medicine?
The next picture is of the apartments right next to our school. They are the ones that make me wonder about my nice apartment and what it would be like to live in one of their apartments.
The last 3 pictures are of my QSI school. It is painted my favorite color. There are beautiful flowers in the entry way. Every QSI school in Kazakhstan envies our playground equipment, because we are the only school that has this huge playground adventure. My kids love it!!!!! An oil company that requested an international school be opened in Aktau paid for it. It is quite fancy. Yesterday I watched a little neighbor boy standing at the fence peering in. I knew he would love to come in and play with my kids. I was so tempted to let him in to play, but I knew I would get in big trouble. I had to turn my back so I couldn't see his little face anymore. When I turned around later he was still there.
