Upon landing in Beijing, I finally made it to my friends Michelle and Thomas' house and we went out for Ethiopian food! yummy.
I met up with my friend Jun and we caught an ex military plane to Changsa in the south.
In the morning I have my breakfast of rice soup, dumplings, noodles, hard boiled egg and of course, since I am American, they bring me a glass of milk. There is no point in trying to explain that I am lactose intolerant.
