... we would show us one. We told her we'd like to buy her lunch and she said ok. It was nice to have her along as she explained about the area specialty Chongdong fish. Unfortunately it cost 240 yuan so we got a different fish but cooked the same way for 40 yuan. You ask what kind of fish for 240? Catfish. Keep in mind the exchange rate is about 6.5 yuan to $1.00 After a good and not expensive lunch Lucy asked ...

... i kdyz jenom jednu). Pak jsme vyrazili na obhlidku. Taiyuan ma jenom jednu skutecnou zajimavost. Cca 60 km od mesta se nachazi dvorec rodiny Qiao, dum, ve kterem se tocil slavny film Vyveste cervene lucerny. Tam jsme jet proste museli.

Anyway, this girl was apparently called Rabbit and she performed her speech like a middle school teenage cheerleader, hopping all over the place (yes, like a rabbit) even at one point making finger rabbit ears and screeching and squealing on and on, but at least it wasn't about love and it was pretty entertaining!
