Tour of South China- Day IV Shenzhen

After last night's fun at the karaoke, it was a bit of an effort to wake oneself up and get down to breakfast. I also had trouble finding the coffeehouse as I did not remember being told that it was on the fifth floor. So after an unscheduled tour of the "Mary Celeste" I finally found the coffeehouse and gobbled down my breakfast in 15 minutes.

Then it was off in the mini-bus to Shenzhen. Needless to say I slept most of the way, only to wake up periodically for a wee at a rest stop. We finally arrived in Shenzhen at approximately 3 pm where we decided to find some food after checking into "Days Inn". Of all things, we found a halal cafe which was still serving food at that time of day. This was the place where I had my "shaggy yak" noodle, which wa

s detailed in an earlier post.

After an afternoon rest it was then off to a very touristy cultural s

how. It was bright and spectacular, more Las Vegas then traditional China. 

Then it was off to dinner at yet another randomly selected restaurant. Once again we had a feast, this time around, the herbal soup took centre stage; as we all tried to guess what was in it. We of course could not, however, it did not stop us from ordering a second pot of the same soup. However a bitter taste was left in our mouths, when the bill came with a 800 remimbi "arithmetical error".   

After last night's drunken frolics, an early night was the order for the day.
