First, a little reminder of home - it's a little bizarre to see Oregon t-shirts in China...but we were in the Nike store...
And then in the "mall" we found this...guess what these girls were selling???
Did you guess hair dryers, razors and irons? During their dance, a crowd had gathered and then models came out to show off fancy hair dryers. It was a special display of very expensive (even by US standards) Panasonic personal care electronics!
We had Blizzards at Dairy Queen and lunch at KFC. Kevin tried on a bunch of shoes, but we didn't find any that were comfortable (except for the $100 Nikes that he would grow out of in 2 months!). Kevin was very popular at KFC - the local Chinese like his long dark blond hair as most boys in China have very short hair. Some teenage boys with long hair took their picture with Kevin.
We bought 3 DVDs ($2.25 each). One of the movies was "UP!" which turned out to be a DVD filmed in a Russian theater - the sound is in English, but the written words in the movie are in Russian. Good movie, we watched it last night. We know that it is "buyer beware" to buy DVDs here, but for $2.25, it's worth the risk!
Also, on Sunday night we had a Luau at Campus Village, complete with a roasted pig. Here are some pictures.

Hi, I used to live in Dalian and maybe help on the dvd front. If you go to www.xianzai.com it will have a page for Dalian and on there you will find and add for Amy's DVD emporium in Dalian city. She speaks pretty good English and only caries good quality DVDS plus they are only a buck.
Cool - thanks!!
