Updates and things we forgot to tell..

Just remembered we forgot to tell you that we just missed the Olympic torch with a few hours! In Yichang, which is a while ago.. We got there at 1 o'clock in the night and didn't know untill we left after a few days that we just missed the torch!! It was there the same day we arrived, but we arrived too late.. Our two chinese friends, who we met on the train from Yichang to Fenghuang, asked us when we had just met, how long we had stayed in Yichang, and we answered "three days or so" and they screamed: "DID YOU SEE THE TORCH???" And we said: "Torch?Torch? What torch?" And then we realized, it was the Olympic torch, and it had visited Yichang the day we arrived.. And we missed it!! And then we screamed: " OH NO!!!!!"
Hahaha, typically! Their friend did actually carry it, so at least we know someone who knows someone who carried the Olympic torch!!! It had, of course, been a wild day, I don't know how much they show on TV outside China, but here they show hours every day from the torch relay.. Every day! So we have definitely seen it on tv, but we just missed it in real life..

And then a funny story from today:
We have crossed the boarder from Macau back into China on foot( didn't see the boarder, we got off one bus on one side of a big building, and walked through passportcontrols twice, and then we were through), but the funny part was a little boy who spotted Kristoffer.. He stood just beside him, pointing at him and laughing his head off!!!!! He laughed so he almost couldn't stand on his feet, and so loud everyone turned to see what was going on!! IT WAS HILARIUOS!! I laughed for ten minutes straight again, and Kristoffer as well, hahaha!!! And everyone else, of course! So welcome back to be unormal looking again!

Now we try do decide what to do, cause it is raining all over South China, and it doesn't seem to stop anytime soon, so where to go? What to see?
We have no clue..
So what tomorrow brings, we don't know at all. (But then, who does?)
Good night!
