With more regular internet access, comes more regular postings! Yah! Who doesn’t like that? Breakfast was a delicious treat at a local breakfast house. We had meat and vegetable buns, seasame buns stuffed w/ roast beef, soft tofu w/ sauce, and wonton soup. All for 12 Yeun! Much cheaper than the 300 yeun dinner we had last night. And just as filling. Then we went to the Great Wall of China. This ain’t no “good” wall, or “average” wall. They weren’t kidding, it’s Great indeed. YSP.
After that, we took a short car ride to the tomb of emperors of the Ming Dynasty. These guys knew how to die. It’s easily comparable to the tombs of the pharoahs, if not more impressive. The tombs were burried 11 meters underground and withstood thousands of years of pressure w/o collapsing. YSP.
Now I’m off to dinner w/ another family friend. The end result will probably be eating too much food. But I’ll let you know if there’s a twist in this story.
