Wuhan = the South

    Just got back from eating some lunch (which was really spicy and I wasn't quite prepared for but very good) and some shopping at the IGA which is so very close to us and I love the fact that pretty much you can walk to the store, Walmart, or Aloha Diner (so tempting when I pass). I am glad that they have Gatorade here on days like today. I swear I moved back to the South and not the China today felt like a typical hot and muggy Florida day in August. The only difference is that not every place here uses A/C so you sweat a lot (yay for deodorant the gift that keeps on giving).

    We saw the pirate ship (yes like the Black Pearl) on French street behind Aloha. I will put up pictures as soon as Amber can upload them to my computer. I wonder if I hang around the ship if I will meet Jack Sparrow that would be so epic and very random but TIC (this is china) and the most random things happen pretty daily around here. Like crossing the street which is a daily adventure all by itself..let's not even start on bus and taxi rides.

     I finally and officially bought my own set of chopsticks and they have happy bunnies on them I love them they are so me...I am excited that we maybe moving in tomorrow so I can buy more chopstick as well as dishes and stuff for my new home. Sometimes I still can't believe that I moved to China I never do super impulsive stuff like that I always carefully plan and set everything in a timeline. This has been by far the craziest thing I have ever done! I am still pretty blown away by the fact that I live in Asia and that my new apartment is in a building that looks like a castle!! I get to be a princess in a castle now if I could just find my prince who gives me a library ;)



     I"m not sure what we are doing tonight but I have to say that life here is a new adventure everyday even when you just want a random normal day you will never find that in China. Like Alice always said "I give myself very good advice that I very seldom follow" Well I finally followed some of my own advice and grabbed my ship and went for a ride across a very large ocean.
