Cold Day at Tai Yuen (Capital of Shan Xi)

We had our buffet breakfast at the hotel restaurant at 8:00 AM. Christine called Mr. Lee for car service to allow the chauffeur to have a day off. Mr. Lee and Christine get to know each other quite well. He came to pick us up at around 11:00AM. First we went to look at cars, because Christine plans to buy a school bus and a van for the school. Our next stop was to get some paint samples for the school floor. It was about time for lunch, so we asked Mr. Lee to take us to whatever restaurant he thinks that is good. We had two orders of Tin Ging dumplings, a dish of eggplants, a dish of fried pumpkins plus soup for everyone. The place wasn't that pleasing but the food was delicious. Everything included it only cost me $29.00 Chinese money, around US$3.00 only for the three of us. Can you imagine it?
After we satisfied our tummy, next we went to look for security guard uniforms, long coats and torch lights. Finally, we had Mr. Lee drive us to a wholesale place where we bought a lot of cleaning utensils. By this time, it was freezing cold, about 9 degree below, so we hurried back to the hotel for a nice warm dinner.
