There is a famous lake next to the city. To gain access to the lake and to take a boat across and back they were asking about $20. It just seems silly considering how many lakes there are back in Michigan. Chinese people go crazy over lakes since there aren’t as many here.
The Chinese girl I met on the bus yesterday partnered me up for today only and we were able to take a horse drawn cart over to an area where we could get next to the lake for free. The other attraction is a the three pagodas (towers) which they charge nearly $20 to get into also. I took a look at them from the outside, and that was good enough for me.
I was riding a bike today too. Unfortunately, a case with my sunglasses fell out of my pants while riding. It was dark by this time and I couldn’t find it on the road. These are the same pants I had when my wallet was stolen too. I think I need to throw them out soon so this doesn’t happen again, but I’ve already lost everything that’s been in my pockets.
