unrecycling?

No time to upload new photos from last night and this morning, as I've got to check out of my hotel and catch a plane back to Shanghai, so I'll use this image uploaded yesterday. For some reason, I find the translation funny.

Found the Muslim Restaurant last night. Had a meal called yangrou paomo. It's local muslim cuisine. You're given a loaf of flat bread and a bowl. You break the bread up into tiny chunks and put them into the bowl. They bring it back to the kitchen and add a soup made of mutton broth, mutton, green onions and celophane noodles. The soup is absorbed by the chunks of hard, dry bread. It's served with pickled garlic and a sort of red chili paste, which can be added to the soup. It was delicious.

Went up the drum and bell towers early this morning, caught traditional musical performances in each, then went back to the muslim quarter for more haggling.

Came back to the hotel, caught the last half hour or so of the debate, and commenced packing.

Audbren - washed boxers with woolite in the sink. They dry quickly enough that there's no need to pay. I'm not running around in dirty undergarments!

As I said, posting will probably become more work related soon. Not sure how internet access will be in Shanghai. Hopefully I'll be able to post new photos from the Shanghai Library in between conference sessions. We'll see.
