Chongqing, Chongqing, China
Saturday, August 21, 2010
For a change I remembered to bring my camera, when I went out today. All the weather prognosis are promising heavy rains this weekend, so far that haven't happened, but the temperature is just gorgeous, high 20s which is nice and cool, when you are getting used to 40 degrees.
I had a late and lazy morning, I would have loved to have enjoyed it with a good brunch, but I have no idea where to get one of those without being ruined; so it was just with my usual porridge.
But at around noon I went out to get my weekly massage, at a small massage place, primarily run by blind people, where 1 hour costs 30RMB, which is about 25kroner.
It was a nice massage, except for the fact that the massage guy kept farting...
Compared to many other big cities in China, I find that Chongqing have a different feel. Despite there living 32 mil. people in the Chongqing municipality, it still feels quite rural, and not at all as Westernized as the cities on the East coast.
I hope have my room cleared up one of these days so I can also upload some pictures of that.
Take care and have a nice Sunday.
Hugs,
Eva Maria
