11/5 Sunday

After waking up, we went out to lunch with Caroline, Terry, and Lac at a Dim Sum restaurant. The food was pretty good, but I still prefer my favorite Dim Sum restaurant in Beijing: Jin Ding Xuan.

I went with Terry to try to find some new clothes, since we both packed extremely light and knew we were in for a really cold winter. We went to a shopping area called Xi Dan, which is only a couple of stops away from Wang Fu Jing to the west. However, we ended up not buying anything because we were too overwhelmed by the swelling crowds, the yelling salespeople and the enormous amount of low quality stuff that might fall apart within a week. The stores farther down the main street were predominantly shopped at by Chinese people, and we didn’t see a foreigner the entire time.
