So we slept in a bit and waited for the two Italians to leave before we could get out of bed and get dressed. It is amazing how many people leave shoes and clothes behind in a backpackers.
Once they left, we, the ladies got ready to go out. We decided to go to the Nanjing West Street Market. Well this market is indoors and is four floors up. So its good to start your way at the top and work your way down. It has anything and everything. It was great fun.
So off we went, me navigating. And guess what ? I got us lost.
On the way Sanchia got lost in translation. We did laugh though. A guy on the road was saying to us 'watch bag', and Sanchia said' isn't he nice telling us to watch our bags. There must be pick pockets here'. But instead he was tell us that he sells 'watches, bags. Ha Ha. So we decided that now was the time to have something to eat and leave it to the guys to find our way to the market. We stopped off at Mr P's Pizza. No we did not order the pizza. Instead we ordered chips, nuggets and pasta. The Pizza was over 100 yuan each. Ridiculous.
Then off we headed to the subway to get to the line 2 to the market. As easy as that. Ja!!! I knew that. (ha ha)
Well what a market. You have sellers calling at you as you walk past their stall for you to come in and buy their goods. And we had to bargain. And bargain we did. It was so much fun and a great experience. By the time we walked out of there, I was exhausted and it was already dark.
We took the subway back and walked to our hostel.
On the way there we stopped at a local restaurant for a bite to eat. Boy, do they make delicious food. By the time we finished it was about 9pm.
At the hostel we did some washing. Y10 for 1 token and believe me you can't use 1 token in the tumble dryer. We had a wonderful day.
