We awoke around
7pm to go out for dinner and to the market. While on our walk to the restaurant,
our friend Man kin showed us around the outside of the campus including where
the sports complex and exercise building are. We ate a local restaurant that
had a large selection of tasty food from all around the world. Man kin offered
to buy our dinner. I had the chicken fried rice and Joel had the beef noodles.
The food was excellent minus the mystery meet I was told not to eat! We then discovered that there is no sales tax.
After eating, Man
kin took us to one of the local grocery markets. Inside the market we found all
kinds of exotic fruit that we had never seen before. Most of the food was cheap and reasonably
priced aside from the imported American products. We bought the bare essential
items at the market and headed back to the school.
On our way up an escalator we saw a local
Chinese woman fall down the stairs and continued to roll down as it went up.
Man kin jumped to help her before Joel and I had time to even process what was
happening. Apparently, she had just lost
her balance. She seemed fine aside from a few bruises. After returning back to
the school Joel and I decided to go to bed early.
