You Know You're in China When...

- the appropriate wear for your toddler is butt-less pants instead of diapers.

- you go for an innocent bike trip and end up fallen over in a rice paddy.

- bubble tea is from heaven and should be consumed always.

- dumplings is the only true form of breakfast. But beware of the sugar ones!

- you're not a tourist until you and your friends have matching colourful hats and a tour guide waving a flag in your face.

- Chinese think you are part of the tourist attraction when you go swimming in a picturesque river, and show up in dozens to take your picture.

- your chest hair is so impressive strangers feel the need to come up and tug it. (Thank you, David, for giving us many laughs!)

- the best thing on the menu is 'the boiled water explodes the vegetables' and 'pigs hotter in sauce'.

- anything is edible, including chicken feet, pigs' ears, and live turtles.
