Today I figured out how to type sentences in Chinese. For example, if you have the correct fonts installed: ???. Much easier and faster than writing out by hand. In the evening, the husband in the family, Liu Yang (or we call him “Lake”), took me to see Tiana**en Square (censored in hopes of not getting this site blocked in China) and Wangfujing Street. At the Square, we saw the famous portrait of Mao Zedong, and tried to watch a flag lowering ceremony (as a thousand others were doing). And then Wangfujing Street is home to the largest shopping mall in China. I ate some Korean food there. The dish was served in a hot iron bowl, so it stayed hot and clean. Maybe it was the first time in a while my intestines didn’t have trouble afterward.
