Our big adventure for the day? The ferry. We walked over to the ferry docking station. It was a hoot to watch S try to tell them where we wanted to go. I think they finally figured out that we only wanted to go straight across the river to the other side. We paid 2 yuan for four tickets (that's about 25 cents) and waited for the next ferry to come. Within a few minutes we boarded and we were off. We sure get a lot of glares and stares. Slady was a little nervous about the whole thing. But it was pretty fun in the end. There really isn't much on the other side. A lot of bars that were vacant during the afternoon. A large park with some fun toys and some interesting people to watch. It got us out of the hotel room for a while and into the HOT HOT sun. Pretty fun.
