Back in Five. Just Goin For a Bowl of Noodles
Wednesday, October 04, 2006
Baiyin, China
Maaaate,
This is my noisey & colourful three minute walk to get a bowl of noodles!
The department store down stairs has just opened and all day every day they have out door entertainment. I have figured out that there is a good point to all the noise though. I know when they play Enigma there is a fashion show on and then, it's a good time to go for noodles.
After the department store is a one minute walk past little old ladies squatting selling vegies laid out on cloth or news paper. Just after them are the VERY EVIL ladies whom are cooking 'Stinky Tofu'. This stuff not only smells like vomit, but it actually tastes like it too!
Then comes the entrance to the very long market where you can buy everything and anything you need. Even an entire truck load of apples. The colours & aromas in the market change every five steps just like what is being sold. The fish section would be the worst.
Strangely, accross from the fish section are the hair salons, go figure!
My favourite sections are the fabric section where I can fill my eyes and walk amongst many bright colours and then comes the spice section. Oh the thick and rich smells, just awesome!.
I'm sorry, as you can tell it's 'Twin Tub' day
I must do something to amuse myself
Time to fill the bugger of a machine again
Beers Noodles N Twin Tubs to ya...shane
