China Journal Post 9 -- Local practices

Everywhere we go, it seems that the local people want to take our picture.  I didn't get why people wanted to take our pictures.  Brad asked, and the Chinese people responded with, "Yes, we see white people a lot, but never this pretty!"  Not sure what that meant.

And about the food, yes.  I've been perfect at actually trying to, at the very least, taste a bite of every single thing.  Even the pig's foot!  And a lot of random unidentified meats they shove my direction.  Although I do make Saebra taste stuff first, usually.  They don't refrigerate milk or eggs here.  The first time I tried milk, I found lots of little chunks in it -- which freaked me out (even though they were supposed to be there, apparently).  I won't be drinking milk anymore.  Plus I don't trust the fresh veggies ... and I can't find frozen or canned.

I may end up losing a lot of weight before this trip is over.
