Jianshi

Town and about, being a tourist trap so has everything really spendie that you don’t need.

Our first afternoon was immigration to find out about a time extension but first was lunch and saving a three wheeled scoota rolling off down a road for which the lady was extremely grateful, she knocked the block out from under the wheel then it started to get away on her, she yelled out to her mates for help but I was right there so I grabbed it and stopped it much to her surprise because she was still looking the other way screaming and I had already stopped it from running away….she took a second to grasp why it had stopped, whiteyfoowheelchoc at your service mam. 

Jianshi vibe is cool, the people are very nice … and cos they wonna sell ya something, my Chinese has improved by immersion into their society and ways, I cannot spell any of the words but I can understand more and more as we go and can parrot the sounds to make them understand me.     

During todays walk we came across Walmart…LOL, last thing I thought we would see in China but it did have some westyfoo wine so we got a bottle to have.

Some funny things here, certainly different to Kiwi style and that is what makes traveling cool.

Some of the places....

Its not the size of your shop it is the way you sell from it.
