Saturday was a rainy day, any desire for sightseeing was literally washed away by the rain – so big part of the team ended up in Wuhan’s effective, but nearly incomprehensible bus network to head for a local fashion mall.
The mall turned out a to be a stuffed, cramped nine-story building full of little shops selling cheap clothes often of questionable quality; most of us therefore headed back to the hotel after this interesting experience, this time walking (aka Björn’s guided tour through the clothing wholesale district).
The evening found us heading out for a club we already had gotten to on our first weekend in Wuhan. Already back then we had a funny feeling about the place – though as we really enjoyed the show and the dancing, we took the decision to head back to celebrate into Lya’s birthday.
We had once more loads of fun, even got special attention from the club’s manager, who took special care of us. Once more there were loads of show elements thrown in during the evening – and as we had Lesley call ahead, we even ended up with a VIP table with good views and close to the dance floor; only the music selection was a bit inconsistent.We also got close to a final conclusion on the funny feeling we had at the first time. In any case I am pretty sure, that this has been a worthy start into Lya’s 26th year 😉 – and a good night to remember for the rest, that joined in.
All in all – I have to say the CSC China 15 team is an amazing group of people; Saturday night was yet more evidence that we are indeed a united and loyal team with full ability of cultural adaption.
