Dinner, fireworks, and bobing.

After the afternoon activities, it was time for dinner. The girls did a bunch of prep and then we BBQ'd.Chinese style.

Green onions. They were actually pretty good with the oil, garlic and salt.

 Emily, Susan, and the Sunny Du on the far right. Sunny is one of the three who won a trip to the US with the company. She will be there the first week of November.

 Bread, cucumbers, meat, and potatoes. The potatoes didn't work too well... But the rest was good.

 "Hot pink pork" we called it. I asked about how it was seasoned - because it was really good - but they told us it was preseasoned from the grocery store with "Chinese sauce." Not helpful.

 Rulf. The only guy from the company  - besides Daniel, Matt and the guy in charge. Brave man.

Grilling.

Then Paul (in charge)  had this box of fireworks. He lit it up and then there were like 50 of these things. It was awesome. He said it only cost about $50 US.

 

 The box.

Then: bobing. It's a dice game that is played here in Fujian, only, from what we understand. They play it t Mid-Autumn festival. You roll the dice for various combinations of four.

 Selena. She is Daniel's assistant. She's very helpful.

 The bowl you roll into.

The prizes. The better you roll, the better your prize. For the lowest there was a lottery card, the next was toothpaste (green tea flavor) then various amounts of gift cards for Walmart.

We made out like bandits. I won the biggest prize at our table. Total we got 9 lottery tickets, 2 tubes of toothpaste (that we gave away!) and then 450RMB to Walmart. That's like 85$. Awesome. That's pretty much our groceries for the rest of the time we are here.

It was fun. We were quite tired by bedtime and slept pretty well. We got up and were out at 9 the next morning. On a death march. That's the next post.
