In the morning Mo and I exercised again and took Trig for another walk. She had to meet with her language partner to practice her Mandarin so she took us on the mini bus to Drew's office. The mini buses here are really cool forms of public transportation. They fit 16 passengers and everyone has a seat on them. They also come by every few minutes so it's no big deal if you don't fit on it right away. Plus they cost $4.50 HKD ($.60 USD). Drew took us to a tiny little Szechuan place for Dandan noodles. I have level 2 spiciness and Drew had 4. Mine was a very comfortable spice level while Drew was sweating at the end of it.
After lunch we got some macaroons and coffee. Mo met up with us back at the office building and took us to the wet market. It was down what seemed like a random side street in the city and had both indoor and outdoor sections. There were live fish, dried fish, butcher shops, and fresh produce. The seafood was so fresh we watched a shrimp escape from it's container onto the pavement.
The only thing that we bought were some tasty egg tarts at a bakery. We met up with Drew again later at a place in a different mall called SML, for small medium and large. After a walk back to the mini bus we made our way back to the apartment again.
