Good morning everyone. It is only 7am but Xi'an is busy. The street vendors are setting up and the farmers are bringing their produce out. The streets are always very busy always alot of noise and lots of horns. The neat thing here is that Volkswagons are the affordable car. So everyone even the police have VW. When we see one with very tinted windows that mean it is soemone with high importance like the president of the University of dean of a college. And never walk in front of the car, they do not tend to stop. So that is why they honk and if you do not move they proceed to drive around you. And one must always watch out for the bikes. There are many;) The first day when we were heading out for supper at about 7pm daycare was just letting out and there was swarms of children and parents and bikes. It was really funny to be in the middle of it.
Today we are going down town. It is so exciting. I think that it will be fun. Everything is so cheap here. This Internet card that i am using i put 10yuan on it days ago and i still have many days left iam sure. 10 yuan is about $1.30 cad. So as you can tell very cheap. And the gaming culture is another story, This lab is always filled with at least 50 gamers and there is about 150 computers. The room is also a haze cause they all like to smoke.
Breakfast is good very different. Deepfried doughs are a popular item. As well as fresh vegetables. they might cook is some westerner breakfast one day.
Well have to go see you after the weekend of touring.
