Spending some more time in the internet..
Today we didnt go to that medical herbs botanic garden as we planned, but we slept til late and had a good day in the city centre.. Somewhere along the way we lost our heads.
Tomorrow we want to try to go to a smaller village somewhere close to Nanning, either by boat or by bus. Though I still doubt that it will be easy to get there. We will see.

MY CHINA

FOOD
Now that we are in the South we realized the change of the kitchen. On the market we saw snakes and dogs, ready to be killed. On the menu in Yangshuo (a touristy place though) they said:
Snake. You can play with the snake, and take photographs with it. Then watch it being killed. You can keep the skin and drink the blood and enjoy the fleash. That was.. different. When we had dinner this one time there was a snake that escaped, so people were all excited, and when they had it back I saw how they killed it.. Huu. Also we see lots of young kitties here.. No old ones. Am not really sure why... In a supermarket we saw bags with ants inside. Maybe a nice spice?
SQUATTING
Chinese people squat everywhere. On the streets, smoking or not, on benches (while a tourist might think that benches are for SITTING) and even we heard stories of toilets.. That you could see footprints on the toilet seats.. That is so funny.
POLLUTION
Air and rivers are so polluted that you can even see it.. In Xi'an we couldnt even see the sun for a few days. First we thought its this romantic fog you can see on all those advertising photos but I guess its not.. Its just smog!!
HELLOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
We hear that everywhere we go.
TRAFFIC
A good phrase to describe the traffic here is: You gotta know whats going on everywhere, in front of you, behind you, next to you.. Now that you know whats going on: IGNORE IT.

So much for now.....
