Peking Opera

Friday was the start to a great weekend. We had our final language lesson that morning and we had an interesting cultural lesson. We learned the basics of Chinese calligraphy and traditional paper cutting. We then went to the Liulichang antiques street. Our guide was able to bargain down for some hand-painted fans and pictures. I bought a few of those. We went to eat Peking duck just down the street from there. It was absolutely delicious! We also went to see the Peking Opera and that was pretty cool. I got some photos and videos of that. Now we're off to Xi'an tomorrow morning!
