Deals!
On our last day we went to mainland China...to Shenzen. Another friend of Yam's, Kristin, came with us. In the markets you have to negotiate for everything. Yam and I did a good job during the week but Kristin was the MASTER negotiator!!! Here we all are in a jewelry store. We were there for about a half an hour...but deals were had.
In Shenzen we purchased Chalks...they are marble stamps with names in Chinese engraved on the bottom. Here are pictures of them being made.
The food...the food...we didn't have one bad meal...not one.
Yam picking out some pastries.
Dim Sum
Taro rolls...yummy!!!
Yam taking me up to a yarn store. I am so grateful to have had such a wonderful guide!!
There were lots of apartment buildings just like these through the city. Can't imagine living in one.
