Did you know that the Terra Cotta Warriors are all airheads? (They are hollow!!!)
Quite an amazing sight to see....each face of the thousands is different. Some are cute, most are not. They were built to protect a king in his death chamber as he was placed in there with all of his expensive belongings.
Sidenotes: Tianamen Square is HUGE and everyone sells Chairman Mao watches with his arm moving around. Sorry, all, I didn't buy any for you.
--Tomorrow we're going to do Tai Chi in the am with locals.
--Here in the massive internet cafe filled with many gamers, DVD watchers, and online chatters, there is a man yelling "Shai Mai Shee Ai Yaaaa" which I think means he's selling green tea.
----It's rarely quite in China so far and the following things don't exist:
-crosswalks that are safe
-lines of any sort
-unpushy people
-peanut butter and jelly sandwiches (however, we can get them in India!!)
:) Won't hear from me for a few as we have a 17 hour train ride tomorrow as we officially leave dumpling land!
