Inside the silk factory
Today was an easy day. We began this morning by traveling by bus outside of the city to see how the "peasants" live, so Michael calls them. There were rice patty fields everywhere and corn growing on the sides of mountains. Very strange to see. It was a very mountainous area and people live and farm down in deep valleys. After visiting the countryside, we then were treated to a visit to the silk factory. They talked to us about the silk worms and how they grew inside the cocoons. They showed us several steps in the process, which was very interesting. Today is Grandma Teresa's birthday, so at lunch today we were treated to Chinese birthday cake and Happy Birthday in both English and Chinese. Very cool! The cake was delicious. It had fruits like apples, grapes and pineapple in it. Very delicious, as Allison would say. She's so cute! We hope you are enjoying the posts each day, and most of all, the pictures of beautiful Karsynn and CJ.
