We have had the best day so many things to see and we have only seen a few European people, we do get some strange looks when we are in the alleyways.......I packed a pair of jeans that needed taking up and today we found a little alleyway with a few ladies in it with sewing machines, problem was I didn't want to sit there in my undies....she pulls out a pair of black pants and sends me into the stairway to get changed....then a guy comes in and has to wait for me to get out of the way so he can go up the stairs to his house...most have no English at all but we did get there in the end...$5 Yuan and they were all done...Heaps of things I keep forgetting about, the taps in the shower are so weird here you have to turn them in different directions to get the water right it's so confusing you either freeze or burn yourself......I just love bubble tea it's my treat and I thought that I would be able to get it in Hong Kong but no we didn't see anywhere that sold it...we come here and they have some kinds of bubble tea but I'm not game to try it, looks like it will have to wait till I get home....bugger....Oh and no laundries here so it looks like I will need to get something tonight or I have to start wearing inside out....but don't worry I don't think anyone will notice it smells so bad here one more smelly person won't make that much difference....

Breakfast in the hotel this morning. |
|
Walking street at around 10.00am this morning, you can not move now... |
|
My ironing/mending lady...take note Lynette |
|
This little pig was in a cage out the front of a shop I don't think it was for sale I think it was a pet..well I was hoping it's a pet... |
|
Not sure why you would keep this as a pet but each to their own... |
|
Hey little piggie... |
|
Sad and awful, thinking it's a tiger pelt not sure how they are allowed to sell them...but they seem to have everything here. They had heaps of rino horn as well.... |
|
Tiger paws and horns off deer I suppose... |
|
I was hoping that they weren't real but unfortunately I think that they are... |
|
Now it's not my cup of tea but someone will love it.... |
|
Tanks and planes made out of bullets, try and explain that one coming through Customs... |
|
The egg lady on her push bike... |
|
Pretty sure this is Jade in it's raw form... |
|
Chicken tonight? |
|
Or would you prefer scorpions? |
|
Now this was bizarre, where would they get this from...I wonder if we export crocodile...
|
|
This place was just gorgeous it looked so old... |
|
This is how the alleyways look so rustic and untouched... |
|
Yep need all of these as well... |
|
Fish markets... |
|
Turtle for dinner....anyone |
|
Bit different to how we buy our meat at the butchers... |
|
Mmmmm, crocodile foot, not sure what you would do with this and I really don't want to find out... |
