Grocery Shopping in China
I went grocery shopping in Beijing to buy some food and to see what types of food Chinese might have that we don’t have in the United States. It was interesting to see the wine selection with baskets with fruit below the wine, however much to my surprise there were all sorts of things that I wouldn’t exactly find appealing.
Some of the items include river snails, spicy duck tongue, chicken feet, dried sea cucumber, octopus and squid.
Even their Oreo flavors weren’t very appealing. Anybody want any grape peach? Maybe some raspberry and blueberry flavor? I did try the vanilla to see what that was like and honestly I couldn’t tell the difference between that and regular Oreo cooking filling.

Prostitution in China
In China prostitution is considered a highly despicable act and therefore prostitutes resort to underground methods to prevent being caught. Instead of handing out fliers you can find business cards stuck to the sidewalks to make it not very obvious for patrons to find their contact information. Here is a photo of one of those cards.

Weird Statue in Beijing
I came across this funny statue in Beijing so I took a photo of it. After looking at it I can’t quite figure out what it is supposed to be. The face looks almost like an unhappy alien, but it’s wearing a Speedo and has what looks like a deer antler hat on and I’m not exactly sure what to make of the tree branch with birds on it. The statue raises so many questions and the look on that thing’s face is kind of creepy. I wonder what other weird things I can find around China.

Boothill Grave Yard Outside Tombstone, Arizona
Walked around the Boothill graveyard in Tombstone, Arizona. Upon paying to enter I received the map and then I was free to walk around. They also said that people have been known to see ghosts here. I was not one of those who saw a ghost, however one thing I realized while walking around is that people in the old west died horrific deaths. Here are photos of the different sights I saw.
