Yantai

Yesterday Daniel drove us into Yantai - he had a business lunch which for some reason we were all invited to - it was the same people that we went out with the other night - we must have made a good impression! We went to a hotpot/BBQ restaurant where you cook your own food either by boiling in the large hotpot in the centre of the table - or by BBQ'ing the food on the top.

In the afternoon we did a little bit of shopping and then Ellie and I got a taxi to Crescent moon bay in Yantai and walked along the sea front back into town. We went to Jackies western bar for some good old western food for dinner where I had Spaghetti - it was Daniels first taste of western food and he didn't quite know what to do with a knife and fork - he did pretty well though and said he enjoyed it.

I've got no lessons today again so am going into Huangcheng this afternoon to try and book my coach ticket to Shanghai for the 17th November - I booked the flight back to Beijing from Shanghai this morning.
