After a nice lunch on my own I decided to do a little shopping. But I made a newbie error – they don’t take big bills at the metro ticket machine! So after asking one person if they had change I started walking to find a little shop. I finally found a newsstand and bought a little book (Mickey to the rescue!).
Shopping was fun – I went to an area called Nanjing Pedestrian Shopping Street that is closed to cars. There are some American stores (like the Gap and Sephora), Chinese chain stores and local stores. The sizes are all different and most people don’t speak much English – but with some hand motions I got by.
The car was on a side street. I’m not sure what it was but thought it was cool!
And now tea again….today it is Qimen Black Tea.
