Tonight's dinner...a continuation of Asian cuisine!!

I forgot to get pictures, but dinner was at a restaurant that served both Indian and Thai food...2 Asian foods in one!!  It was pretty good, although I'm not the biggest curry fan.  

Let's just say I'm ready for some Western food, but glad I tried so many new and local foods!!

Love,

A train ride through Southern China

Sometimes you saw old worn villages and sometimes areas that were so green and lush that it could have been Hawaii...complete with palm trees!

Today we rode through southern China...From Chaozhou to Shenzhen.  It's a journey to get back to Hong Kong:  45 minute car ride from factory to Train station, 2.5 hour train ride, 20 minute car ride to the border, border crossing and walk from China into Hong Kong, train ride from border into the city, then a car ride to hotel!  What a day!

Chinese lunch!!

Yummy lunch today where I tried some new things: goose ribs (no thank you), interesting mushrooms (fried spaghetti looking= yum), fish, crunchy rice, peanut appetizer, fried shrimp, goose liver (could not even get myself to try), short ribs and even more!!!!

Someone is going to freak out...

Don't tell Kate, but Oscar (my sourcing agent in Hong Kong) was able to find her Shopkins direct from China.  The guys at the factory told me to make sure no one put them in their mouth!!!  Hmm...do you think they are knockoffs??!!  They look good to me though!!  I'm bringing home 2 bags of 50 Shopkins each!!  They appear to be duplicates in each bag, so 50 for Kate!!  Bet no one else at TCE has these!!!! ;)

She is going to flip!
