We are in our destination city!!! We were greeted at the airport by the assistant director and quickly met up with the director who took us out to eat. This area eats a lot of fish so we had some amazing new dishes to try. When you eat the Chinese way, all the food is put in the middle of the table and you just take small portions to put on your plate. The plates that are used for individuals are much smaller than in the US. Dishes are also brought out as they are prepared. So, you might take a little of everything that is already put out, but the food just keeps coming. And it's all delicious. We were all STUFFED after that meal and so ready to get settled in our hotel.
Have I mentioned the Chinese like their beds hard? Like sleeping on a piece of wood hard? Yeah, those are the beds in this hotel. I'm so tired that I'm sure it will feel like a down filled bed tonight.
Here are a few pictures of our day. We meet the kiddos tomorrow!!!!
Stuffed buns shaped like pigs and peaches at breakfast.
Flight #1 today. Jason, Miranda and I are all pretty tall and we all prefer aisle seats on these long flights. Thankfully this was not a full flight and we got the seats next to us to spill our long legs into.
The team played the food adventure game that my family plays when we go the Asian market. We get an item and everyone has to try it. Might be a dud, might end up being a new favorite. These were like mini Oreos with a lemon filling. Not bad!
Goodnight all!
