Day 5 - DIXIE CHICKS!?!?

Is there something wrong with this picture? I am in China, eating in a Thai restaurant, listening to a woman sing some song by the Dixie Chicks (very well, I might add). John, the salesperson who brought me to the restaurant, heard that I made a foam cover to put on my sitting stool (the only thing to sit on in my "office"). I guess he assumed that "foreigners" have sensitive rears, so he made sure we ate in a place that had soft easy-chairs on which to sit. He did good.

I am on the "Asian Tour" this trip. So far, I have enjoyed Chinese (multiple regional styles), Thai, Japanese, and Korean food. This does not include the "Western" restaurant in my hotel, which has American, German, and Italian food on the buffet. Before I left, someone asked me if I lose weight when I travel to China. Ha-Ha. That's funny.
The infamous "squattie pottie". No I did not use it (bad knees, remember?). You may notice that there is no flushing lever. That is what the hose is for. The trash can is for the used toilet paper, but only if you remembered to bring some along. Ahhh, modern China.
