Gulang Gu

Starting with beer and barbecue we kicked off the weekend Friday at 18, after that there where some germans that had a party at home. So we went there, the apartment where totally new and they had a view that you would pay millions for if it was in Europe or similar country. He and his girlfriend did not paid millions, only 3000 kui per month… Althought it was quite far away from campus, but still real nice, with the view over Gulang Gu. After this we went out to a club that had a grand opening, me and Diederik and Yerkin did not stayed so long, because we planned to go to Gulang Gu in the morning. And we did, well not Yerkin that did what he likes most… sleep.. Gulang Gu is a island that have some history about the dutch, Taiwanese and Chinese, but I will not have a lecture here, intresting can search at internet : ) . We did some real sighseen and i´m uploading some pictures of this. As usual the best of going to tourist places in china is to watch the Chinese tourist, they walking around with there umbrellas in big sightseen group and taking photos(Notice the clear sky but although all umbrellas at some of the pictures). And some of them also get lucky to take a picture of a foreigner, this time it was a bunch of elder men that took a group photo with me and Diederik..
Its not usual that you get back to much money, especial in china, but something happened when I bought two bottles of water at a hostel at the island. It was extremely hot and I think the girl just was a little to unconcentrated, because when I gave her a hundred to pay 4 kui she gave me 126 back.. Although she recounted it like 4 times, well I counted it myself afterwards and went back with the money.. 30 kui was almost what a bed in a four dormetry costed…
After have spent the hole day at the island I went home to catch for some sleep, just so I could have some energy for the evening. Me and some guys took the bus to the nightmarket at Zhongzhan road for some barbecue and beer. Me and Diederik had found one place there that sold draft beer in 5 l barrels. So we started to buy one (cost was 30 kui) but we where a quite big group so it went out quite fast. After some French people also came we just had to have one more. The French convinced us to go to the beach .
Still have not found a way to run, there are not really any places to run that are good, usual its to crowded or it is to much stairs and roads to pass. So the only real thing to do is go to the running track, and run about 20 laps…. Not so fun, and its still so hot, although it should be good tonight when it have rained.
Haha, Carl Bildt is at the moment in CCTV9. Nice that all commercial here are showing that china is growing and moving forward, very optimistic propaganda : )..
There is much that happened all days, usual I forget the things because its so much, is there anything you guys wounder about just post a comment and I answer it as fast I can.
