Molly in China!

It’s really awesome!  I’m having such a great time in Nanjing.

Every morning and afternoon we have field trips to different places, all of which have been really interesting.  I think my favorite so far was the day before yesterday, when we went to this big park.  So many trees!  And grass!  And other green living things that I’d almost forgotten!  We got to ride on a boat and cross a creepy bridge.

What was the most fun?  On the lake they had these big, clear, inflatable balls… and you could go in them!  It was so fun!  They deflated it partially so I could get in, then reinflated it.  It was amazingly difficult to stand once it was on the water, and even harder to stay standing.  I can only imagine how ridiculous I looked.  Next time I have internet on my computer I’ll try to post at least a couple pictures from it so you can all see.

I’ve also eaten a lot of new meats the past couple days.  I get they aren’t really that exotic, but they’re still new to me.  At the park place I tried goose and rabbit, which were both pretty tasty.  Just this afternoon I had little eels.  Whole eels!  Yep, that’s right, I ate the bones, head, and everything.  And you know what?  It was pretty good.  Quite crunchy.  Give ‘em a try if you ever have the opportunity.
