 Thousands of swimmers crowded into this pool in Penglai, Sichuan, western China...scene of the recent devastating earthquake. Families are gradually returning to the area. And if there was no elbow room in the pool, that's fine with the anxious Chinese trying to get back to a normal life. Penglai has become a popular resort for middle-class Chinese. About 70,000 people died in the natural diaster that left 4.8 million people homeless. It's the biggest natural disaster to hit China since 1976.
