This past weekend, I went to the last scheduled event for the summer school program. We went to watch a acrobatics show at Chaoyang Theater on Saturday night. The performances were very good and flawless. There was a partner stunt, chair-stacking performance, straw hat performance, umbrella performance, bicycle performance, and motorcycle performance. I enjoyed watching the entire show, but my favorite was probably the bicycle one. It was a skilled and pretty performance, especially when all 12 girls rode on one bicycle.

Yesterday, I went to the Summer Palace with a few friends. It was a hot but very fun day. After doing some sightseeing, we rented a petal boat and rode on it for an hour in the lake. Then we went back to our dorms to rest for an hour and went to dinner. Our language exchange partner took us to a restaurant called 外婆傢 in 王府井 (Wangfujing). She said it was a popular restaurant, and when we got there I noticed that too. We got a number and waited for a table. We were #76...there were 76 people waiting for a medium sized table in addition to the other three types of tables! During the few hours of waiting, we walked around the department store and grabbed some bubble tea. When we finally got a table, we ordered so much food and dessert. My stomach was very satisfied. :D
