Well Hello us again!!!
Well where do i start firstly photos will be uploaded my glamorous assistant (stephanie) she is currently sorting them out!!
We are having such a good time are tour group is lovely they are mostly all from england then 4 from wales and 2 from ireland altogether there is 14 of us including the tour guide, everyone is so funny and we all get on soo well!!! our tour guide is called Ricky (not his real name!!!) he is so lovely very funny but doesnt mean to be!! - his english is good but not brilliant but he did know the word doggy-bag when he couldnt finish all his food in the restruant thats when i fell in love with him a little bit more!! It so strange over here many people havent seen white people before so they all stare at us and try and take photos some people ask which is nice and we of course are happy to pose but some people try and do it on the sly and stand in front of us while a friend takes a picture supposedly of them but we know its of us we still cant get our heads around it!!
well about the sights...
When we were in Bejing we went to the olympic stadium which was AMAZING we sat in there and watched clips of the olympics - very moving!! We also went to the forbidden city (where the emporers used to live) which was huge it was so big and had a beautiful garden as we said earlier about the staring it was so funny we were just looking around still in the forbidden city when some chinese people askif they could have a picture of us with them in it we said sure thats fine then all of a sudden the chinese people started shouting to the friends and waving them over we had chinese people all running at us from diffrent directions to get in this picture - it was one big group photo we could not stop laughing!! One night we also went to the night market where they sell food basically they have any animal on a stick they fry it and then serve it there was so many such as cockroaches, scorpians, starfish, seahorses, ostrich oh and lots had snake wraped round this lilttle stick ready to be fried! i went up to one of the venders and he asked if i wanted snake a screwed my face up and said oh no i was backing away when he threw something at me and shouted SNAKE iit hit me and i have never screamed so loundly i didnt know if it was part of a snake as me and stephanie made a quick exit out of there!!!
We are now in Shanghai which is so good it has a complete contrast from skyscrapes to old town china stephanie has some amzing pictures she also has made good friends with ricky tour guide (i think he has had enough of her asking so many question the group keep saying she is getting her moneys worth!!) well we have to go off to the Shanghai museum have done so many more things so will try and tell you next time we are on here!!
