A day of new things

Woke up today set on headin to anji, texted drew to confirm and found
that the rain was heavy and he was very busy! I decided to spend the
day here for one more peaceful day before heading out to the crazy big
cities ahead!
I headed into town and grabbed a green tea frappachine from starbucks
before headig out to wander around some shopping centers.
Went to a fancy resteraunt called "grandmas" for lunch and was served
a whole chicken baked, which was delicious! A fish soup, some local
water flowers, and some very spicy dofu, all of which was fantastic
with no rice as recomended by he waiter.
I tried the chickens feet (mainly skin) and the chickens brain (tastes
like spounge, but makes you clever!)

I then headed out for more wandering before returning to the hostel.
After an hour I got hungry and wandered down to find watermelon and
bananas, I tried the banana first as I don't like water melon and
found fresh bananas taste very nice but different to the early picked
and the shipped uk bananas, I then tried the watermelon and found it
to be lovely! Again fresh and local and very different, mostly water
without the strong taste, very nice!

Up early to head to anji for real this time! And I hope drew can meet
me at the station!
No hotel plans yet but have been Reading more of the yes man and so
said yes to drew's school sorting somethig cheap, and found "si a
todo" a great new phrase I missed in spain, yes to everything!!

Early bed tonight but you have to love a place were starbucks costs
the same as a whole meal! And where a water, an iced tea and a large
bottle of beer set you back 80p!
