Flag of China  , Xinjiang Uygur,
Thursday, September 25, 2008

So today we woke up and we had our last breakfast in Hemu. After breakfast we built a yurt. (Well more like we held pieces while the Chinese guys did all the tying. It was surprising fun. Then we took down the yurt, loaded our stuff into the bus, and left Hemu. We did a 5 hour drive back to Borajin (including our hour long lunch stop).

Oncewe got back to town we stopped at a deer farm. It was a little sad to see the dear packed into cages. But from what I hear the deer had a lot more space than American food cattle. A lot of the other students were horrified by how the animals were being treated. I kinda wonder if any of them have been to un-updated zoos back in the states.

After we left the deer farm, we went to the night market. But since we got there at 4:30 we had to wait like 2 hours to get food. I kinda pigged out Dogfish, corn on cob, an entire roll of nang, and a little normal chuar. I all tasted to good.

After the market it was off to the airport. I had a really good ride. This mostly because i spent the entire time talking to one of Li Dao's classmates. She was catching a ride because she was going to the airport to meet her tour group.
