Third day in hz

Today was the last full day in Hangzhou so we spent it around the lake again, we did some more shopping, and ate some local food, some of which was tasty and some well... not so tasty! The local sweet fish thing was...an interesting taste! 

For dinner we went back to the food street again and grabbed some tasty snacks, as we left we decided to get a taxi and buy some fruit for a snack. We got into a small motorised three wheeled taxi and the guy started off in chinese about how handsome I was.... crazy! But he really would not shut up, talking to my friend about handsome I was, I made a few jokes about it, and asked him about his wife, (in chinese obviously) but still he carried on, eventually he dropped us outside and took our money with some more handsome comments.

We went inside and found that this supermarket had no damn fruit anyway! We went back outside and he was still there waiting for us! He shouted out and told us he would take us to an awesome place, we got back in and he drove us to another snack food street, much bigger than the last and much more interesting! We thanked him again and he wouldn't even take any more money, just wanted a picture with me before we left, so strange! 

We looked around this snack food street and bought a few things before heading back to the rooms again. I rediscovered today a fruit I had in thailand a lot and loved, apparently it is very common out here too! So cool! So I can eat that now, whenever I want, so cheaply! So cool!
