Amy, Chelsie, Emily, and I took a bamboo raft down the river. Em and I shared a raft, and taught the cute Chinese man some English words, and he taught us some Chinese. We always tent to learn phrases and words from random people. Chinese people are so friendly I absolutely love being here!
Yangshuo has a lot of western food, I ate; Burritos, French toast, fish and chips, chocolate cake, creps, and the yummiest apply crumble a person could eat! It was really nice to have a little western food but by the end of the week we were all eating Chinese food again, we love our fried rice. I started to miss our cook food back home in Hefei (Ghon), mostly breakfast Fried eggs, rice porridge, Chinese bread and jam. I never really liked eggs until I came here but every night I can’t wait for breakfast in the morning to get my fried egg! SmochNo! As the Ukrainians would say.
This is Johnson Tang- Emily's other half and soul mate. She danced with him for a couple nights at the club, where he works, then he went to Beijing. sad! Emily is the best dancer i have ever seen and then there is Johnson who dancing just like her... it was meant to be.... one of these days we will find him and take him back to America with us so Emily can get her wish... have an Asian baby!
Well everybody was ready for bed, as for Amy and I we weren’t. We decided to venture out to see what dance clubs Yangshuo had to offer us. Every club we stepped into just exploded, they loved us. Well of course we gave them a show, just about any dance move we did they loved even if it was terrible. Amy or I would do a dance move and all the Chinese people would mimic every move. Man I love being famous! Going back to the states clubs will not be anywhere as cool, mostly because I won’t be as cool there. Well we found this one club where we spent the next 5 nights at until early hours of the morning. Everyone there was so nice we danced with the owner, the manager, and all the DJ’s. Every night someone new would come clubing with us, and by the end of the week we just about had ever body. The owner offered us free beers, we felt bad telling him that we don’t drink but he was so cute about it “ohhhh ok free mineral water or soda pop all night!!” So we took him up on his offer free mineral water all night boooyaaa! By the end of the week it was really tough to say good bye to all the cute nice people we met at this club. Don’t worry, we have their e-mails…. They don’t really speak English, maybe we can work around that ha.
Friday we went rafting down this river. I was happy to share a raft with Claire. I mean she was a river rafting guide she could save me ha. She told me all about her river rafting days and convinced me that that is my next adventure after china. They start everyone at the top and let the water build up then open a little gate and let everyone go rushing down. It was a blast Claire and I were laughing the whole way down the mountain.
Some of the different delicacies in yangshuo are Fried Rat, Snails, and snake. Well the rat and snake were pretty expensive and so Amy, Nick, and I decided we would try a plate of snails. Besides the sand that gets in your teeth from the inside of the shell, and the smell they were not too bad. Well we couldn’t finish all them so we made a homeless old man on the side of the street really happy! A free plate of snails!
This was out last day down south, we took a bus back to Guilin and spent the night wondering around the city. The city was absolutely beautiful! These are two Pagodas we found that are in the middle of the lake. It was nice to sit and relax after our long vacation..... notice my new moo moo! oh yeah!
