Week 1 Picture Post

Here's a bunch of pictures to go along with the first post

Why are they in a separate post? Because that's how I like it. You can do it differently when you go to China and start a blog.


Fresh off the plane! First photo in China! Very happy success!



24 hours of travelling. Lost, abandoned. Alone in Zhaoqing. Destitute.




First day of work uniform



Breakfast in the city selfie


We live at the Welove hotel!



Qixinyan Square. Close to our hotel. 


Reverse shot of the square with the mountain range in the background.

New friend Claire with a stray cat we found. All of Claire and James' cats were once strays


Night market! These are cool.


Ancient city wall. It lit up right after I took this.


Touching history.


Me too!



The guy from Up lives in China now



We thought this place was very "authentic" Chinese, but then we noticed all the signs on the tables and the walls. Laura thinks it might be like a chinese Applebees.


There are like 200 flavors of Oreos here! They're almost all uniformly disgusting. These ones were peach and grape, which when blended together tastes like vomit!


Walking to the entrance to Dinghu Mountain park.


The first of two Buddhist temples on the mountain. This one, at the bottom, was a tourist trap that you had to pay 12 Yuan to get into!


Someone threw away a bunch of toilets! This is China!



Climbin'


This is our friend Cynthia




Some helpful information on the way up...




Taking a boat ride to the Butterfly Valley






Mountain Top!



Giant Ding


Entrance to the REAL Buddhist temple. This thing was gorgeous in real life. Carved out of stone.





In the Buddhist Temple there's a big hole where everyone just throws their money.


Bus ride home. After the carnage.

AND NOW SOME ENRISH


The toilet in our school


Just one of the many amazing shirts around here


Yep
