building with three stories that has Chinese lanterns and the black tile
roof. In the center of the court yard there are pots full of the bright fish
and just outside the front door there's a night market that sells beer and
chinese snack food (I love meat on a stick!). Honestly, I find it
simultaneously cheesy and neat at the same time.
I'm traveling with two volunteers from the summer camp which means that I'm
definitely the old man on this expedition. Both of whom are from Tennessee
and one can speak Chinese. I need to stop referring to her as "the walking
phrasebook"...my phrasebook has gone missing and I'm not exactly sure where.
I rarely use it anyway so it's not such a big deal.
Everyone told me Szechuan was hot but it's been raining and it's really cool.
