Exercise


We walked around the apartment complex that we are in, hoping to find something to do, or somewhere to eat. Instead we found, well, apartments. So we headed south to Jinji Lake.


The view was marred only by the constant layer of smog, though I'm supposed to go back there during the heat of August when it sometimes gets burned off on the 100 degree F days. And there is nothing like pollution in the air to pollute the water. There is no swimming anywhere in the city of Suzhou. Or fishing.



Down the shore a bit we found a nice German restaurant, the Münchener Biergarten. Kris spent a year in Germany so he was excited to go.


And, just our luck, it was buy one beer get one free night.



It is a beer, but its a Radler, so its really only half beer. We both ordered two, but I only drank 1 and a half. Surprise surprise. Dinner was a delicious plate of cheese sausages for me and pork for Kris.


Afterwards we headed over to the local art center and movie theatre to have a look around.


We found the Moon Harbor, a little set of shops, probably on the high end, but as it was getting late we just head back home. Another angle of Jinji Lake.


We weren't too far from home, the movie theatre is the pink lights in the middle of the photo, as taken from my balcony. A fun night in all.
