Yiwu meet Dad.

So Dad is here in Yi Wu which is awesome, going out for great meals every evening instead of the schools gruel like meals is pretty rocking.

My blog will probably cross over with Gez's but mine will probably be more accurate. Yesterday we hit the markets which was good fun. Case and I were rather worried what we had read about Yi Wu was all an elusive lie in an attempt to get us here. But the markets were extreme, Beijing silky is childs play compared to our market, which is rightfully named"trade city," Casey got rather blown away with the number of toys available and seemed to purchase the whole first floor worth of things.

Unfortunately we left the trade city without even leaving the equivilent of New Brighton. Still have not reached bags or cosmetics, then went to another market almost as big, Dad went mad that time, got so many shirts that he then lost control of all other elements, lost track of time and got completely lost (see how the accuracy of the story is more precis on this blog).

Dad then came to see the apartmant, then back to the hotel for a fabulously cold swim, and a powerful shower, as opposed to our dribble in the apartment.

To Hangzhou tomorrow, which should be fun, teaching in a different school this afternoon so a bit of a walk which is not so attractive really seeing I think it is at least 40c today, can only imagine dad struggling to venture outside the hotel without immediately having the sweaty arm disease!
