I have had a few significant firsts over the last few days…. I have been riding the subway, which is a breeze (except for when I made a wrong exit and ended up at the Beijing military museum amongst a group of soldiers)
I used the public squat toilet – no privacy, TP, soap or water...and I took the bus to Tiananmen square. (the Chairman says hi!)
I have eaten a lot of new foods including snail noodle soup, deer tendons cooked in herbs and date sauce. I could not however, eat the chicken head that ended up in my soup bowl (beak and all) during the May Way banquet.
