It is time for a Day in the Life. At least one day during every OAT tour, you spend out with local people in whatever country your are visiting. Today was really quite fun. Started out with splitting up in teams, given 10 Yuen and a Chinese name of a vegetable. The challenge was to find and buy that vegetable, in Chinese, then spend the balance of your 10 Yuen on as much as you could buy. The prize, a couple of 1000 year old eggs. Our guide cracked one open and we all had the opportunity for a taste. Somehow a black egg just did not look appealing... We left the market for to poke through the old village and then across the street to the new village. We were greeted with music and dance. Very fun! Met our hosts and broke into two groups to participate in making our lunch dishes. It was a blast, not to mention quite tasty. Good thing Carol and I had previous experience on how to make dumplings thanks to Jeannie Loh. 😊
