Bon Voyage and Goats hot pot

Today we've been to see Bon Voyage (musical performance, where one of my friends has performed) and later we've had a dinner in "All you can Eat" with specialty - goats meat.

Bon Voyage has started around 2PM. Until that we've had an amazing sleep and relax :-) The Performance has taken about one and half hour. I think I've never been on such musical performance. It has been a final concert of high school students, who have been showing, what they have learnt. Our friend Pierre has accompanied them on trombone. There were around 50 participants and so many musical instruments, that I haven't known all of them :-)

Although I haven't known, what to expect, I was very surprised, that it was very interesting and I was listening whole the time. I like the most the music from One Piece (Japanese cartoon movie). And I've really admired how capable all of them were. I couldn't play a single tone. Really, guys, you were great.

After the Performance we've stopped close to Xin Tian Gong (行天宫) and got in (Gong=Temple). This temple is dedicated to the great warrior, Guan Gong (the God of War). He is believed to have huge strength and courage, so the Temple is for people, who are seeking help in this area. There were some ladies (probably monks), who have been giving a blessing to some people - the queue was very long. A lot of people were interested in their blessing.

And because we've had some time before our dinner, we've decided to try to use oracle stones for future telling a picking the stick as an answer. I was pretty quick. First you ask, if your question is good - throw the stones and if yes, you can pick a wooden stick with number. My answer was yes for the first time. I've picked a stick with number. Then you have to ask again, if this stick is good for you. The answer was yes also immediately :-) Geena has a little bit problems with picking stick. She's tried so many times, but at the end, she was successful too.

Later, when you know your answer you can go to the office and ask for explanation - there are some people, who can help you, because to every number there is a legend, so it's difficult to understand. I think, that the stones might be not right, because almost always my future is bad :-D

Anyway later we've gone to All you can eat especially for goat :-) It is hot pot with many kinds of food, which you can try. Specialty was a goat leg - in the bone there is something you can drink - something like a marrow I guess. I've tried. It was OK, but maybe I can skip it next time.

I also like mochi very much. There were three kinds. First was from sea food, fill with the dough - very good, second dough filled with cheese - very bad and third - dough filled with sesame seeds - great! And there was also some kind of India cake - sweet filled with seeds - so good!

And there was a lady, who was taken a picture of me with her shop - the only word I've understood was: You're so beautiful! :-D

Well, I've eaten a lot again, but it was very good. The whole afternoon and evening was good. I've enjoyed it.

At home we've gotten with Geena a small chocolate present from Pete to celebrate Chinese Valentine's Day. We've chatted a little and went to bed very soon :-)

Another day has passed away. Sometimes I wish to stop the time and enjoy the moment even more! But I still have memories, right? :-))
