Shao Xing...just some pictures.

No one should complain about getting old....this person was about 900 and still moving heavy loads. The Chinese are very hard workers. Amazing.
There were over...well I have no idea how many stalls of fabric...and any type of fabric you could imagine. This is one of the biggest export areas for fabric in China. These stalls lined about three city blocks and was three floors. Holy crap...you could buy fabric for anything and then get it made in a matter of days. I love it. Bought some fabric for a dress that I will get made for our Christmas in Malaysia.

One the bike was huge bolts of fabric...he was in the middle of traffic.


Three city blocks with three floors. I had to walk by and touch stuff.



Before we could go off on our own and since this was free trip we had to go to an expo show. Just so they had foreign faces there. And there were a lot of foreign faces....people come from all over the world so they can buy fabric for their factories. It was cool but not what we wanted to do...we wanted to buy fabric. But there was a band that met us at the opening...yup it was a really big deal.
