Today we had a day off and had a good day checking out Yiwu, went and had dumplings in the park for lunch which was good and then had a great shop at the supermarket, bought some great vegetables, ready to cook for the boys in Quzhou. Then Case got a haircut by some totally sweet chinese babes, who all had scorpion tattoos. While she did that I went and checked out the streets around us and made some friends with some old guys playing cards on the street. Unfortunately when I tried to take a photo, the two policemen playing quickly jumped out. It was pretty amazing, then they were laughing with me saying they were being too naughty!
Then we came home to get PAID, and Peter showed us some Tai Chi which was extremely
difficult to video, whilst holding my nose as to not giggle, the video lasted for 1 minute, the true performance lasted for around 8 or 9 minutes. Great times! I honestly worry about that man sometime, today he made the classic comment, "Tai Chi is sometimes slowly, but sometimes very boxing, very boxy boxy box."This evening we are going to have dinner in a different park and watch the Tai Chi, plus today is according to Peter "old man's day" which means they will be dancing like dragons. Should be interesting!!!

So tragic I wasn't there for Old Mans Day, I can be so dragonish. Love the photo's and brilliant performance from Peter. Pass my regards on to him. All makes great memories of my trip. Have fun. Love You. Gxx
I love the police men jumping out - so naughty!! And I can't watch the peter video on my work computer... But you know I'll be straight on to it when I get home!!
How did Casey's haircut turn out? Were her cutters nicer than Penny's & let her choose a style?
The cutters were extremely keen to give her a perm, which we decided against in the end. She just got a trim with a fringe, although along with the haircut you get a hairwash. At the beginning they asked me if I wanted one, I flagged. Turned out that the hairwash was a whole head shoulders and arms massage. JEALOUS!
All for about NZ$4
Kate, Peter sounds incredible. Do you have any idea what boxy means in that sense? Speaking of naughty people, How many of your aeroplane to do list tasks have you completed? Hear the great news about Evie? Probably not knocked up! Good, huh? Puppies next Christmas! Anyways, good hearing from you. See you soon.
Bill
