Hot and cool
1 At last, I arrived in Chengdu. My friend Haoyu took me to a restaurant right from the airport. I just couldn't wait to try Sichuan hot pot!
2 But the first taste made my mouth burn! The food was much hotter than I expected. I took a deep breath and drank a whole glass of iced lemon tea.
3 “Do you want something less hot?” Haoyu said.
4 “No,” I replied. “When in China, do as the Chinese do!” I carefully took a small mouthful. Surprisingly, I started to enjoy the taste. And cooking hot pot was just as fun as eating it!
5 After lunch, things went from really hot to totally cool – we went to the new Sanxingdui Museum! The masks were fantastic. “Why are their eyes and ears much bigger than normal ones? Were ancient Shu people able to see and hear further than us?” I wondered. I wanted to stay in the museum for a week!
6 My first day in China was full of fun: I tried new food and went to an exciting place. I'm really looking forward to the rest of my trip around China!
