Wuhan day 2






Wuhan day 2

You probably wonder what the first picture is, yes it's exactly what you think, 2 feet! These are some really rare specimen from a old woman and date back over a 100 years. Some chinese used to tie the feet of women in small shoes so that the foot itself would remain small. Small feet was considered elegant and only upper class had them (lucky rich people). Got a picture of it because my friends dad is a doctor and had found this somewhere :) Freeeeaky

Ate something bad and don’t feel too good today so I got up pretty late. The only thing we did the second day was driving around the East Lake and visit a park with a public swimming pool in the lake.
The lake is full of dead fishes because the water is lacking oxygen so you can imagine that swimming there isn’t that pleasant. Still, there were some Chinese swimming there enjoying their beautiful East Lake that smelled like rotten fish, you can see it floating around in one of the pics.
On the way home i saw the longest kite ever! Probably hundreds of meters and so much details on it, must have taken some time to make it. Also a pic from the boat that is crossing the Jangze river.

I went back to Beijing with a train and this time even had a bed. The bed was pretty small and there were 6 beds in each room. The 5 other beds were occupied by Chinese women and they all told me that they would love to go to Finland someday.
