China Trip @ Sunday January 27, 2008 05:55 pm by WunderKraut
Yesterday (Sunday for us) we had an off day. Nothing was officially scheduled so we took the opportunity to get out and about.
It was still very cold (32) with a good wind, but it wasn’t sleeting anymore. However, everything was still very much frozen. We saw one lady slip and fall flat on her backside. I still cringe when I think about it. We had to be extra careful as we navigated down the streets.
Our friends, the Moore’s, went with us. We headed down to where the Pizza Hut is located because we saw a bunch of shops and thought there might be another restaurant.
We found several places to eat which were selling “food”, but nothing we cared to try. We walked a few blocks past the Pizza Hut and finally decided to give up.
So we ate at Pizza Hut again!

Once again the pizza was pretty good and we all ended up good and stuffed.

Heaven On A Plate
The funny thin is I don’t even like Pizza Hut back in the States, but here, it tastes great.
Now if I can just get my hands on a big, greasy hamburger….
We were talking yesterday about how sad it is how much our life revolves around food. The lack of familiar food can affect your mood. It’s really odd.
Anyway, the walk back was interrupted by shopping here and there. It sure felt good to be back in our room to thaw out. Oh, bonus points, we managed to avoid the Nanny Police today. I guess we had Mei bundled up enough for the old ladies.
But, we head to Guangzhou today and with it, food closer to my heart.
Next stop: Guangzhou…then home.
We miss everyone more than you can imagine, especially our wonderfully, awesome kids. Nathan, Charlie and Madi, we are coming home soon. I love you!

Hi Guys! I highly recommend the chicken on a stick that they sell street-side. Who knows how safe it is, but we loved it. It’s skewers of chicken breast that’s breaded and deep-fried for like 1 us dollar. We lived off that stuff because we were wary of other food too. Funny how you mentioned you don’t like Pizza hut back home but will eat it there. We felt the same way about KFC. We haven’t touched that stuff since we’ve been back, but it was heaven to have over there. You’re doing such a great thing! We’re praying for you.
Brian and Linh,
Great to hear from you guys. I have thought of you often on our trip….how you guys traveled for a year…is beyond me!
It’s fun, but I miss the kids and miss home…
