We ventured out to the Muslim Market for lunch yesterday. It was a site to behold and the yummiest lunch! Brian & I could have spent hours and hours there but it's hard keeping up with two little girls in such a crowd. Plus, we seem to get lots of stares. Our guide was telling us that adoption is not that well known/done in this province so I guess it is very unusual for people to see caucasians with two little Chinese girls.
The street we were on was filled with restaurants and stores on each side and then the street itself was full of people and then individual carts of goods and food, food and more food. The sites, sounds and mostly the smells will be with me for a long time. Our guide tells us that homemade noodles are the best here in all of China and after lunch, I would have to agree with her. I would have loved to been able to sample some of the street vendor food but she didn't think that would be a good idea!
