So, the other day I got news that a panda lantern display had come from Chengdu to Wuhan for all the month of April. I was invited to go with a big ol' group of Chinese friends and American friends. It was amazing, at night of course. In the daylight, it wasn't much. But hey, that's lights.We ate on the "fairgrounds" (it basically was a Chinese state fair, there was even a small roller coaster) of the display which was set in Wuhan's beautiful East Lake Park. I enjoyed some things cooked on a stick and a little bit of the flavor of Sichuan.I even managed to get a picture with the coolest guys on the scene. The Muslim chuar grillers. These bad boys were making the big bucks by upping their sales with hip and loud techno beats and a strobe light. It worked, there were crowds gathered and my Tookish side won over and I boldly danced at his side doing a strange arms-out-head-bobbing middle eastern dance.
