So, it isnt a building crane. I wasnt really thinking about birds before our 8am bus departure from our hotel to the site.
Yellow crane tower is a historic tower at the bank of the Yangtze River. Supposedly the view is great . . .It wasn't bad--I mean, you could see the skyline a bit thru the haze. I am not sure if the haze was due to the weather or the pollution (???) After living in the 'bel paese' for so long, my standard for a beautiful panorama is very very high.
Legend states that a scholar was standing in the tower, when he saw a crane flying past. He asked to hitch a ride on the crane, which took him away and he was never to be seen again. So, the yellow crane refers to a bird . . . who knew?
