So many ceramics

I woke up in the morning to miss all the crowds at the ancient kilns. I wasn't disappointed. This is the place where they made all the old ceramics for the emperors hundreds of years ago. Amazing. China has so much history, I can't even handle it sometimes. The sites were all dressed up and very renovated, but I guess that's OK.

I texted Laan Liu from Couchsurfing to meet up with her after lunch. The taxi driver couldn't understand where I wanted to go, so I ended up just walking there. In the middle of a terrible torrential downpour. Finally I we found each other and visited all of the places to buy ceramics in town. I bought some, but they shall remain a secret until Christmas, I guess.

Eventually, we ended up near Laan Liu's house and I couldn't sleepover in her dorm, but she showed me a cheap hotel nearby and I stayed there. Ready and so tired to go home tomorrow!
