one of the better things in life is that feeling you get after a good meal; a happy sigh. this was a typical lunch; see that dish to the right? it's a staple beijing dish; it was offered almost everywhere i went - and needless to say, it was pretty good. peanuts, chilli, chicken, a hint of something green and a magic sauce; it was good. but i've never seen it anywhere outside of the country; i can't remember what it was called. beers were mandatory with lunch - and you get one long-neck per person (they're about 30-40 cents). and i ain't one to question local custom...in fact, the whole deal was cheap - this particular outing would cost less than AUS$4.00 - for two. no, i ain't one to question local custom...
today was one of those days when you get the feeling of no good within minutes of getting out of bed. [cue big sigh]; one of those. this is the cost of leaving - sometimes you come back, and you have to resume all that it felt so good to slip out of. still, there are heavier loads; and those wheels on keep turning
