Christmas in Jieyang
We celebrated Christmas in a new way. We made Udoun noodles for Christmas Eve dinner and went to a church here in our city. The church was packed-hundreds of people. We of course were the only foreigners and they spoke in the regional dialect for the entire service, but we are really glad we went. It was very interesting.
