We ended day one with an Imperial Dinner....
not really sure what "imperial" meant, but it was quite tasty!!!
Except for that very thin tomato-ish soup.....
As we were eating, we could hear music in the room next door, then, this dancer steps into our little room and says, "I dance for you." The music starts back up and she begins to "dance".... but, it was really this awkward moving.... Then, before the music stopped, she stopped dancing and just stood there.... After probably almost 30 seconds of just standing there, she turned around and walked out of the room. We were just looking at each other, not knowing if we should clap for her or if she was waiting for a tip or what!! Awkward!!
Then, it was time for the show!!
"The Legend of Kung Fu" playing at Red Theatre which, according to the pamphlet, is "the most exciting KungFu show in the world"!!
"In an ancient temple we encounter a little boy (Chin Yu 'the pure one'). Through practicing Kungfu and Zen he becomes a master and finally reaches the sacred goal of enlightenment."
We were expecting to see all the kungfu demonstration parts of the show, but, the story and full stage production used were fascinatingly surprising!!
This sign on the Ladies toilet door was also fascinating..... a great example of Chenglish!!
After show picture with a monk!
When we were walking out to the bus, Rodney spotted this sign across the street.... Anybody got a ligarette??
It was also fascinating to see the moving lights on the buildings.... the vertical lights were running up the building!
Finally, the end of Day One.... Time to head back to the hotel, get some sleep and be ready for Day Two,
because, according to our itinerary, we were going to
"step on Great Wall"!!!!
