Hey! We found some fellow Americans who let us pal around dwith them yesterday. They're both families from Michigan who are here for te same reason. We went on a fun filled adventure to the....... grocery store. Which really was an adventure. We had to walk ttghrouggh the local market... which is like MD,s board walk multiplied by 10. Tyheyre all yelling at you for your attention. When the locals see ou they just scream hello!! And out have no choice but to look up. When you do, the ye naik you wittgh 20 offers. Most people have these yellow boxes of saffron just sitting out. When they see you, they yell hello, pick up the box and offer you a good price on t. What's with the saffron? Enuf ppl must buy it or else they'd use some thing else, but who? I think its a bet, who can sell a box of saffron first?
The grocery store was crazym, as is everyytyhin around d here. Too many people. Check out was not a line... rattyher a mob.
Went for her health check yesterday, seemed fine. Came back for a nap, then went for a walk on the local island. Its a European style tourist area, actually kinda nice. Brides and models everywhere. Even saw this Chinese Goth punk rock band doing a photo shoot. ?! Had lunch at lucy,'s, dbl cheeseburger and a local Chinese beer. (Eat your heart out eric...:-) you would have liked it) overallm, good day. Hope was. Ot t all interested in the play ground. Cried on the slide.
Today, a Buddhist temple and local park. Sinccd yesterdays pics seem to have wormed, I'll try one of hope having breakfast.

Seriously?!?! A cheeseburger. You have your choice of any number of authentic Chinese dishes with fresh spices and vegetables you can't get anywhere in the US, and you choose to eat a cheeseburger?!? The culinary delights available to you over there make me so jealous!
ReplyDeleteIf you're familiar with lolcats, maybe we need an "lolandreycheks".
ReplyDeleteWe can put together a picture series of the lolandreycheks traveling 16,000 miles, only to say "I Can Has Cheeseburger" :-)
