Experiencing China

There are so many cultural differences here that we are still experiencing new ones every day it seems.  Some are better than others....
Fish head soup- no I did not eat this

Moon Cakes!  Today (Monday) is Mid-Autumn Festival and everyone gives moon cakes to each other.  They might be one of the worst tasting things ever.  I got a huge box from one of my students.  Yum! I think its kind of like how people give fruit cake at Christmas but no one likes it.

The bus.  It is crowded!  But we are getting more used to it!


Also, we are learning how to shop!  Here are some pictures of the closest market to us called the Cleat Market.  It is cheap and Chinese!  Like, really Chinese.

Don't eat the speckled eggs.  
Very large cucumbers?  some kind of squash?
