Departure of GuiZhou

January 19, 2009

We woke up and went to his dad's factory and saw 200 workers filling little plastic packets with shredded beef snack. It was remarkable to see so many working on the task - all by hand. Then we toured the place where the cattle are kept. We stopped by the factory store and Kevin bought each of us a GIANT box of beef snacks as well as a bag filled with 8 large jars of spicy beef jelly. We thanked them and returned to Austin's house to take a much needed shower. We gave Austin the snacks to ship them to us in Zhuhai after the trip so we wouldn't have to carry them with us.
We went to town to grab some sushi. we bought Austin's dad an electric razor - very expensive - to thank him for all of his generosity. We gave him the razor at our final meal together and he was throughly happy once again offering us their home if we ever return.
