9/5/07




I opted for a free day today and was able to walk around the neighborhood and see some local sites. A few of the Chinese students met us and together we went to the mountainous park behind the dorms to walk the trails and see the gigantic golden Buddha statue. Around the Buddha is a large, open courtyard where people can buy ice cream, rent roller skates and just cruise around. For me, it doesn't get much better than golden Buddhas, roller skates, and a popsicle.

For lunch Katie, Drew, Joel and I wanted some "american" food so we hailed a cab to Pizza Hut. Here, Pizza Hut is somewhat "classy". It was a decent, but weird, lunch.
