Beijing
If you've seen Ruth's and Joseph's blog, then you've seen some pictures from Beijing. Here's a few more shots: This is a shot of Joseph and Ruth in front of the "Bird's Nest" as its called. It is the main Olympic Stadium that will be used this summer. I did a little searching on the internet and found that it cost $500 million!
In English this type of meal is called hot pot. In Chinese, huo guo. To eat hot pot you order some uncooked meat and vegetables (and sometimes noodles) and then drop those items into the boiling soup until it's cooked then eat it when it's ready. I usually enjoy eating this, but I didn't enjoy this type as much because the pot was fashioned in such a way that made it very difficult to retrieve your food once you had put it in the pot to cook. It was still fun though.
