We're back! Had some computer problems last week so getting on the blog was problematic. We took a few pictures over the week and wanted to get those up here. I'll have my lovely bride do a write-up later on.
Here we go:
|
Getting the insides of our pumpkin out. I had an audience as a couple of our dorm neighbors had never seen a jack-o-lantern being made. |
|
Julie had great aspirations of toasting the pumpkin seeds. We did this last year and it was delicious. She had great aspirations! |
|
Now enjoy several pictures of my freehand pumpkin carving skills. |
|
This is our version of a fancy breakfast. Corn meal pancakes we bought at the store the night before with peanut butter and then some apples. We were given a big box of apples a couple weeks ago and have almost eaten them all. To drink we had mimosa when we found some champagne the night before. |
|
Champagne! In the morning! We don't have very many cups. |
|
For our anniversary we went to the Houhai district of Beijing and enjoyed the rain and the wind! Houhai is along a series of small lakes and has a famous bar and restaurant street. We found this bar and were glad to get out of the rain. |
|
Julie got a mocha martini. She wasn't a big fan of it. I tried the last sip and thought it was pretty good for a martini. |
|
Our next stop was Buffalo. It had the best pizza we've had so far because it had the best cheese we have had in China. |
|
Nothing like a Mexican beer on a cold raining Chinese evening. |
|
This is the courtyard at our hotel when we woke up on Sunday morning. |
|
The rain turned to snow and then back to rain. |
|
We made our way to the Charlie Brown Cafe which Julie loved, until she drank too much caffeine and now she has mixed feelings about the Charlie Brown Cafe. |
