I am rather glad that the Singapore government impose fines on people who spit in public back home. This, we seem to have taken for granted. In Dalian, people, especially men, spit as and when they feel like. I can even tell you boldly that they are good at it, by observing the distance the "spit" travel and they way they do it, it is like part of their daily routine. It is just like how human beings need to drink water everyday, and they would just die without it. This came across my mind while I was waiting at the nearby bus interchange yesterday as an uncle spitted from inside the office through a window out to an open space.

Yesterday it was a pity that our trip to some valley far away was been cancelled due to expected rain later in the day. Anyway, we had backup plans and we saw ourselves at the same place we were last Saturday. We went to Victory Underground Shopping Mall again, but this time round it was only Eunice, Pei Yu, Wen Zhen and me.

We had the same food for lunch as Pei Yu and Wen Zhen have not tried them before.

For dinner, we had Pizza Hut. The outlet we went to was very big and we had the usual stuff, hawaiian pizza. It was like the classic food on the menu. We tend to relate back to what we used to eat back home in Singapore. Food outlets like MacDonalds, KFC and Pizza Hut, we all know them and there bound to be comparison. I guess that is part and parcel of how we can slowly start to adapt to the food culture in Dalian..
