Yep, we're in Hangzhou, all right!
Well, we can't say we've seen a lot of the city since we actually arrived around 6pm, it was already nearly dark and then it took us more than two hours to find a hotel with rooms available.
Yes, we didn't book ahead and sincerely regret it now. We are again in a Motel 168, which is actually a pretty good chain of affordable hotels, but the one of Hangzhou is really far from the city center... So we're already thinking of moving to another hotel tomorrow.
Ok, at least we have internet in the room so I just post this little message and will try to update some pictures.
Tonight, we had a nice dinner in a nearby restaurant:
-Water chestnuts with green chilis and bacon
-Chili beef
-Vegetable Spring Rolls
and some herbs we have no idea about their names.
We also had 2 local ''beers'' which were very rightfully called ''LIGHT'' beers...
They're the first beers i ever drank that have actually even less than 2 degrees of alcohol!
It really felt like bubbly water but was kind refresing, it's called XIHU, (west lake), in case you're interested.
OK, now I have to keep searching for another hotel so I'll leave you for now!
Stay tuned!
