Our special moments in China

During our tour of China, of course, we visited and filmed all the well-known sights along our way. They were all very, very impressive. However, this film is not dedicated to these famous cities, but to the extraordinary and rather strange moments we experienced. When we arrived, we were supposed to read our fingerprints without human help. We failed miserably. Too complicated for pensioners. That's the right hand. And she says left hand. Right hand. Right? Because it says left hand. On the first day we were looking for something to eat. There was something we hadn't enjoyed for 50 years. Candy. I usually never eat ice cream. But when you are totally exhausted, you do strange things. What do you do when you are exhausted? In the hotel room there was a lamp that you had to shoot to turn it on and off. Clever. Especially the noise. This rickshaw ride was terribly boring. There are no really old working quarters in China anymore. Everything is new. Alright. Go forward. Go forward. Go forward. Drive normally. Drive. Go, go, go. Go forward. Don't turn it. Go, go, go. OK. Done. At a temple two people perform a very elegant dance. Shhh. Smoking is forbidden in temples and palaces. Even in the open. But Chinese people are very polite with such prohibitions. These visitors from the country puffed like the world champions. This is not heroin. This is not cannabis. This is tobacco. Unfortunately, I did not notice how the police officers then prohibited them from smoking. According to the tour guide, they just go somewhere else to continue to please their luster. In the parks there is often a wedding market in a corner. The parents of a willing to marry lady award their daughter. Interested people can talk to the parents, rarely with the young woman. She was born in August 1982. She is 1.65 meters tall. She had a college graduation. She is one of the Communist Party members. She is healthy. She is slim. She has lots of hobbies. She works for a primary school as a teacher. She has her own car, her own apartment in Chengdu. She is looking for someone taller than 1.73 meters. He has to be born between 1974 and 1982. He has to follow the responsibilities and the same education background. If you are interested, her parents are right here. Wherever we went, we saw bridal couples at the photo shoot. Traditionally, the bridal dress is red, because that is the color of happiness in China. More western-oriented brides wear a white bridal dress nowadays. Please don't fall in yet. Everywhere in China they offer ear cleaning. Of course I couldn't miss that. I had the impression that I could hear my wife better afterwards. And that for a spot price. In Taiwan, you can't hear your wife. You have to listen to your wife. In temples, you are often allowed to ring the big bell yourself. That had to be for us. We have to go inside. How do we let the phoenix know that we have worshipped him? These children have probably not seen many long noses yet. We were greeted like statesmen. Bye-bye! This cook shows how well she can cut noodles with her eyes closed. A sample is burned afterwards to show that only flour and protein is used for the noodles. No water. I still have a little bit. Wow, not bad. Up to the bottom. These women of an ethnic minority showed us for money how long their hair is. The hair is only cut twice, on the 18th birthday and on the day of death. Oh, and when? At the 18th, they cut. And maybe when they die, they can cut. This group, the name is not drawn. It's Yao, Y-A-O, Yao, Yao lady. Yao people, another group. In a host family, we were allowed to help prepare the sticky rice. That's how you can tell what's in there. Such a big root. It's a pity that nothing goes wrong with it. My grandma also made such a rice dish 50 years ago, but not in a bamboo tube on an open fire. Should I put it in? Yes. Okay. And now? Put it in the water from time to time, in case it burns. Rice alcohol. This is the best rice alcohol. This is a potato. Ah, in oil. Video. You can ride a bike on the city wall in Xi'an. Unfortunately, there was heavy smog, so the pleasure was a bit dull. The contrast between the old city wall and the modern residential buildings is still impressive. So, this is not 100% traditional. After visiting the famous terracotta warriors, we should produce small figures ourselves. A nice fun. Old times. Reminds me of my childhood. Push it. Okay, thank you. Watch it out. Push it. Let's go. It doesn't come out at all. It's boring. Now you have to put a branch in. What do I have to do? You have to put it in. What do I have to do? Ha, ha, ha. Like this. Oh, this is the statue of a pro. Okay. Well done. There it is. Oh, you got it. Okay. No, no, no. You scared me. It's okay. Is it good? Super. Very good. Now you can do it again. Ha, ha, ha. You can do it again. Ha, ha, ha. I'm serious. I can do it.
