Dalian, China - City Tour
We had a full day in Dalian.
The original agenda included a stop at the kindergarten for a school
performance, but because we were in town on a weekend, the stop was switched to
a local retirement community center. I was pleasantly surprised with the show
that the center presented for us. Everyone was happy to take photos. We also stopped at a large public
gathering plaza. The big activity here was kite flying. We then went to a huge Farmer’s Market and as
a grand finale visited the home of a local.
She graciously provided tea and snacks, and answered questions about her
life (through an interpreter). I enjoyed the day and have a lot of photos to
show of the street scenes and more details of the stops.
I'll be interested to hear about her life. Glad you're getting to interact with local people.
