BBQ-ing in the Ground
Went with Jason to Taishan for the weekend. Well more like we left Saturday evening, had dinner with his friends, and then woke up to spend the day in the countryside (And yes, I spent the night at a hotel while he stayed at his family's home). When my cousin tells me we are going to the countryside where my family lives, what he means is we are going to a remote spot where they have rice fields and vegetable gardens, but they still have toilets, ...
Oh My God
... into the journey, we started to climb the really big mountains. The Wutai Shan mountains rise to over 2700m.
