Free day from work today!
Been doing some Christmas shopping and strolling around in a new clothes center. The people who have been here (in Beijing) knows Wudaokou clothes market, this place is 3 blocks from the original Wudaokou market and much bigger. Stuff is cheap here and there are NO tourist, not like that horrible Silk Market where i hate to go shopping. Again i witnessed some amazing China on the way to these places: First, the truck carrying some kind of wood (Niko check out them Logistics!) Second, huge MAO statue outside a university!
Had some Korean BBQ food today, wish they had this back home! They have a pot full of glowing coal and a fan by every table. You order some meat and put it on the grill. The restaurant provides you with all kinds of vegetable and extra things for the meat. They have huge salad leaves where you put the meat in and also fold other green things like garlic, peppers, kimichi etc. It's like having a Taco but the shell is salad :)
Every Wednesday night from 20--> there is a Pub Night Quiz at Lush. This was the first time i went there and it was packed with people! There are 50 questions with various topics and the winner will get a Jack And Daniels Whiskey bottle. Second and third price are smaller drinks and beer. My team didn't win this time but maybe next time, it still was a lot of fun!
