I am still in Beihai and did not get kidnapped by last night's man although that was the closest I came to being napped. I got rid of him by telling him I wanted to walk around and no, he didn't need to come with me. Then I escaped around the corner and waited some time before going to have a milkshake in McD's and furtively running back to the hotel so as not to bump into possible kidnapping man again.
I ventured across the road to the other hotel this afternoon, where although their room rates were far too much for me, the nice lady did tell of a foreigners' bar called Tommy's and even explained to the taxi man how to get me here. Well, i am not here but in a hotel close by and I shall be moving to this hotel tomorrow sionce i have already paid at the other one, This one is cheaper, they have a pool, its by the sea and they have free internet for me. The weather is shitty though. Clouds and some rain drops but it is meant to be sunny on Tuesday again and really all i need is one day of sunburning before i go home.
At Tommy's bar, I had lunch, saw the world's most bad tempered old swedish man yell at his chinese wife for buying the wrong thing and was invited to the English corner tonight. I will go because a)I have nothing better to do and b) there are people I can talk to there and c) i will make them teach me some chinese too. I need free lessons also. Its only fair.
I will soon return to Tommy;s bar to have beer and some lovely barbecue sticks later.
Beihai is getting nicer by the day.
