Art District 798 Vol II
Just (exactly) one month after I have been there, so much is different - or I haven't been to some places last time. So, this attraction is definitely worth visiting more than one time if you are in Beijing for a longer time. Again: Finest art for free in the fast changing Beijing.

The Scorpion Challenge
After I procrastinated this now basically since I arrived, today was the day. Yummy Scorpions on the stick on the night market. 10 Yuan for a freshly fried foursome pack, which was more or less alive just the second before... look at the pictures ;-)


... it looks worth than it is, the taste is just like some fried shrimps, or whatever fried - maybe with a little bit of crunchy shell. So, i guess the next step would be the balls - not sure if I want to do that. Balls are for girls.

Australian Hutong Flair
After some Mc Donald's and more pictures at Wangfujing we took the metro to the Nanluogu Hutong street for some relaxed beers...
Also here the time is not standing still. Just last week there have been different bars than today... crazy.
As it was already a bit later, it was hard to find a bar with more than two free seats. Finally we stood in front of "Ned's" - a tiny Australian bar with a nice bartender and double Jägermeister for single prices ;-) Thanks to Steve!
