Later. We went to the Summer Palace! The weather was cold and the palace and lake were beautiful.
At one point I thought my host mother had called my host father retarded, then I realized she had just told me he was going to the toilet.
We met my host sister then went to a Japanese restaurant for lunch.
The sushi tasted so good and familiar, like the sushi from the restaurant near the REI in Salt Lake.
Favorite question of the day (in Chinese of course): "You eat fruit, don’t eat meat, right?" "Yes." "Do you eat garlic?"
What did you to learn about using chopsticks? I'm interested to know, as I learned to use them, in part, from following you. - (Stir) Ling-ling
ReplyDeleteThat wide-angle view of the Summer Palace is very very nice, and brings back memories of the next time I'm going to visit there. Thanks!
