I was just checking through my bookmark folder when I came across Photobucket – an image hosting site. I had forgotten that last year I created an account and uploaded some photos. I remembered that I had uploaded them, but then lost track of them. So here they are!
These pictures were taken on 1 October 2005, China’s National Day, in Shijiazhuang, China. We (DH, American T & Me) spent the day in the park – being stared at, eating weird things on a stick, and chatting with a little Chinese girl.
The crowded streets & lovely air quality
Me in the park
Decorations in the park
More crowds & me in the middle of it all
Peacock?
Our table in the park where we chatted with a little Chinese girl in English. She ordered her father to buy us beers!
Our favorite restaurant at the Shijiazhuang airport (that no longer exists) The Mongols. Here – a waitress, DH and the American T
Our favorite meal – Pork in Fish Sauce with Boiled & Barbeque Bread
The DH digging in. He is quite handy with the chopsticks!
I can’t believe that these photos are more than one year old! When these were taken I was still very new to China and every day was an adventure. (Actually, that is still pretty true!)

That American T is one great looking guy!
I sure like that American T. He is SOOOO HOT
I think I was as that dinner. But after many rough kebabs I had to leave early and speed walk home…
LOL Eggy! China has done a lot to increase my intestinal fortitude, but those kebabs were the worst!
