day off

Today was our first day off.  Our roommate, Dave, took us to a few of his favorite spots.  We learned a few back alley ways that have great fruit markets on the way to downtown Wuxi.  Our final destination was Huangshan mountain.  There is a family that lives in a temple on the mountain top.  I forgot the camera so these are a few photos I borrowed.  We ended up at a restaurant back in our neighborhood (called Dongting).  The restaurant is known for the Sichuan spices it uses in their food.  Needless to say our mouths were on fire when we left.  Nothing that a few good beers couldn't take care of though.  It was a great ending to a perfect day.  top photo via, middle photo via, bottom photo via
