May 7th: Haimen again, jiggedy jig
[ posted by mcdeviltoast ]
Day 233
We woke, checked out, joked about the phone incident from the day before. Ethan had recommended a place to get sandwiches, so we cabbed it there and gorged oursleves. I had roast beef and cheese with mustard, lettuce and tomato on a baguette. It wasn't good "for China." It was good universally. (To the Western ear, the above sandwich may sound basic and unimpressive, but try going without for over 7 months. It becomes luxury.)
We got a bus to Haimen, got off in Nantong to grab a bite with Erin and Matt, spin tales of our adventures. Then, on to Haimen where we caught up with the crew, told the stories again, watched DVDs and passed out, encircled by familiarity and a relief to finally be back.
