The elderly appear to be very healthy, they are active and often dance with fans in the parks for exercise and probably it reduces stress as well, they looked very relaxed. In general you don't see the degree of stress in the people here, unless they are driving....then look out. VERY scary being in a vehicle, especially a taxi. Our taxi drivers, who by the way drive sticks, can drive dodging other vehicles, excelerate, brake, talk on the cell phone and listen to the radio all at the same time....that's talent.
This afternoon Jacequline took a group of ladies to a local tailors and allowed us to choose dresses, blouses, etc. to be made for us while we were in Nanchang. We each selected what we liked and were measured. They were to deliver the clothing to the hotel on Sunday and would allow us to try it on and fix anything needing correcting. I tried on a blouse at the shop that nearly fix me perfect, I liked the style and they had a skirt with it. So I decided on the skirt/blouse combination which was more suited to life in the laid back mountains, I don't know where I'd ever go to wear something more dressy...not where we live anyway. This way I could wear it with slacks as well. I've never had anything custom made and the cost was very reasonable, less then $50. US dollars. We purchased some store bought Chinese clothing for Lyndsay since she would outgrow them very quickly, we decided we could get her more things cheaper by going the ready made route.
After a long day we decide to eat gourmet in our room, we had cup-o-noodles and cracker with cheese.
