After dinner we went to the Beijing night market. This market is famous for selling all sorts of crazy food, like snake, scorpion, centipedes, and other perfectly atrocious options. Our guide Milly ensures us that this market is strictly a tourist attraction and that regular Beijingers do not eat these foods. Rather, the vendors come from all over the country and from afar to thrill the tourists. Milly is an amazing tour guide, and she made sure no one ate these foods since they sit out for a long time and are not very fresh. She is always looking out for us! Even though the food isn't THIS bad, these pictures sort of sum up how I'm feeling about the local cuisine. I've been through 17 countries and this is the first time I have ever felt the culture shock setting in!

That's hilarious, actually. Think of all the 'brave' tourists who actually eat that stuff! Blech!
