7 November 2010: Corn on the cob and more fruit markets


7 November 2010

Greetings all from cool Shenyang,
It's sunday afternoon as I write this (by the way China never changes times, so no "Spring Up Fall Back" to remember here!) and it's cold and wet outside.  It's rain today, but for forecast is calling for snow on Wednesday...we'll see!  The weather forecasts here are like the ones in the US...not something you can count on!
This weekend has been some needed rest and relaxation.  We got out a little but, but not much.  This time on year on Shenyang, the street food vendors switch to Corn on the cob and roasted sweet potatoes for your fast food pallets. Here's some fast corn on the cob!  If you have a 3 wheel trike here, you can go into business!

Awhile back I had a picture of some fruit that some of you wandered what the squashed Asian fruit was, and at the time, i didn't know.  Well, now we know. They are persimmons...and big ones!

Persimmons in China!  Are these the biggest Persimmons in the you've ever seen?!



Here's a picture with Rod and his favorite fruit market not far from the hotel.

Always a winner with the girls!
Not much else going on here in Shenyang... take care everyone and keep those emails coming!!
