Eating Subway in China. Notice the smiles?
FREE REFILLS ON SODA WITH UNLIMITED ICE!
No chopsticks required.
The things we take for granted in America!
Our first "real" meal in Xi-an.
At the Dumpling house. Notice the chopsticks? And the lack of napkins--you have to provide your own and we never remembered. And the lack of WATER with ICE--see the room temperature bottle of Coke?
Xi'an food was spicier than North Eastern Coastal food. And they have NOODLES!
BTW-check out Bethany's fiercely concentrating face. Can you hear her thinking, "Please let me get ONE bite in my mouth this time!"? :)
Also note the A/C in the back ground of this photo. It was just for show.
The stuff in the wok was cauliflower, bacon and jalapenos. YUMMY!
Samuel is pouring himself hot tea since his mouth was burning off and he didn't have WATER with ice.
Can you tell I was a little confounded by the hot drink thing?
I know I should have been culturally sensitive and embraced it--but REALLY?
Yvonne and Lily enjoying dinner with the Americans (most everyone else on the BMH staff were from Australia).
Yummy dumplings and cilantro dipping sauce!
Kristen's full belly after all those dumplings!
This is such a funny post. I love how you share your stories. The look on Bethany's face on the second picture made me laugh. Looks like she is wondering what she's about to eat...if it was actual food.
