Our Adventure To Walmart

Everyday in China has some sort of adventure to it, even if it is being stuck outside for 30 minutes and trying to communicate with the guards to let you into your dorm or trying to order what you want at the restraunts! We recently went on a fun little adventure to Walmart, that is right- we have a walmart only 30 minutes away from us!!
Andrea felt like we had dressed up for the occasion- don't we look like a pirate and sailor heading out to sea?

Chinas Walmart puts Americas Walmart to shame :) First off Walmart sent a bus to our school to just pick the 13 of us up and take us to Walmart for free. And as we got close we come around the corner we see this beautiful castle looking building with a glowing dome on top and yes it was Walmart!

We were all really excited because we heard you could get Macaroni and Cheese there! We are not sure why we wanted that so bad or why we were so excited about it but we were!
My pictures just don't do justice of how cool this building was, but it was really amazing

I love this picture of Andrea, because she is so excited and just ate a blue dum dum sucker! :)
Its funny how excited we were about going to Walmart :) It was a fun adventure but going inside was nothing extremely special! It was not like Walmart at home at all but just like another supermarket! :) Joey found DDR and was able to compete on that for awhile and we drew a crowd! We also all bought reusable bags that say Walmart in Chinese! :) Reusable Bags are quite the fashion here since you have to pay for plastic- so we all have lots of fun different bags!!
