Day 2 - China

Jamie and I went to Wal Mart today. It costs 2 rmb each for a one way ticket on an air conditioned bus, only 1 for an un-airconditioned. Because the humidity here is 1 billion, we chose to splurge and ride in comfort. It is still really cheap as the entire round trip across town only costs us about 75 cents. Wal Mart was large and quite crowded and very busy. The carts are only about half of the size of the U.S. carts and it was a 2 story with an ramp travelator (escalator) that takes you to the second story. We bought a few items for our kitchen because we could only carry so much. Living in a city with a car will be like that apparently. That is ok, because we figure we'll save about $6500 this year in gas alone.

I'm posting some pictures of our apartment and view. They should be there by this afternoon. We slept most of the day today trying to rest. My head cold is about gone. I haven't ran into any sites that have been blocked and am grateful that this blog isn't. Keep checking back for updates.
