Hutong

okay, this is one the seafood fried rice we ordered which i had mentioned in my earlier post. Took this picture cause there is no seafood in it, well... not really, did found a prawn tail and very tiny bits of prawn meat.

I know my English is not good but it's quite fun when we try to spot the spelling mistake together with the kids.

While strolling along the lake, I was imaging it will be nice if my friends are here with me to chill out together. Think they will like it.

Starbucks~

The trishaw riders brought us to one of the courtyard residences (siheyuan). We paid 20 yuan to enter. This house was also one of the temporary stay for the Olympic athletes. You can also rent a room here, think its like 400 yuan.

Pubs, chill out places are everywhere. I like the lavender colour sofas on the second level.

Public toilets are everywhere at Hutong cause inside most of the courtyards or homes, there are no toilets inside.

Des went in, came out and took the camera and went in again. Haha, i told him its so clean, though it has no doors but it has dividers. Its nothing compare to the toilets i went to the rural part of Yunnan, Kunming or Jilin, where you have yo empty your bowel in a bucket filled of ... and dividers that are so low that when you squat, you can chat with your 'cubicle neighbour' beside you.

Hee! Baby was cute, he was even cuter when i see his back! See the 'xiao pi gu'! It's common to have a hole so it be more convenient to ... but its so cold...

We took this sign picture just in case we forgot where we park our car.
