WEDNESDAY

Today Jen and I shopped until we both dropped. Finally saw all of the people they talk about. We went to 2 markets where you haggle, They got hold of my arm and we could not pry them off. I ended yelling and pushing, really Ugly American. I refused to buy from them even though they offered at below my price. They ate vicious.

Cam was great this morning and seems worse tonight. It is really up and down. I finally entered the world of Tradition Chinese Medicine, TMC, I had acupuncture and Chinese massage. I had a 11 needles. was a little concerned when she said "Oh my this is bad I must get the big needle."
Tomorrow Jen and I are doing the cultural tour and then Friday to the Olympics.

Hi Miriam, TCM. I love it! So you had acupucture. Wow! And got in a real shooting match with the Chinese hagglers. So they met a real American. Glad you survived and werent stabbed. We are all watching Michael Phelps and the gym teams. Its a trip you will never forget. Greetings to Cam and hope he will have more up days than down. Sincerely, Ruth and Joe
