Oct. 23rd, 2009 06:32 amSo, fangirl odyssey comes to an end with...we went to the newer of Han Mama's shops today. Ummm. :D; We stood outside looking awkward for a minute or two on the far side of the sidewalk, and then went in where we immediately saw... Han Mama. Me: .... I had to process like, mother..? Aunt...? And I concluded mother. must know the family of the OTP And I spewed out Mandarin, pointed out "chicken" in the guidebook and managed to get that ordered, and ordered Sprite.
We've drank a lot of Sprite.
Also, we had tea. And chicken with onions (or leeks?) with peanuts. And peppers... A little spicy. And rice. I said rice in Mandarin and got my point across! The world has not ended! Pretty much the only meal where Mandarin was the primary language. (i.e. we weren't ordering a Big Mac)
And the food was good! I think for three people it wasn't a lot of food, one dish and rice, but we all are not big eaters and we still had food left just with ordering that much. :| Our waitress gave us the amount of yuan in English, lol. And of course, there was the column of fangirl notes, and the copious Geng pictures on the wall (pretty)... Oh. And the Olympic torch. XD;;;;; And at the end, we stood up, snapped pics of the walls... turned sixteen shades of red, and then ran out to take pics of the front of the building. Han Mama smiled and nodded and said bye when we went. As I nodded at her and ducked my head like "BIG GINORMOUS LOSER HI." lol We were not at ALL conspicuous, three tall white girls taking pictures as other fangirls gawked at us (and some with their boyfriends in picture-taking roles). We didn't get our pic taken with her or anything though. XD Just eating there was "XD;;;;;;;;;; Wait, what are we doing?" enough. Ahaha. Not to mention the ride over, in the 30000 year long taxi ride, where I was like "I hope we're going to the right spot..." (I had had to write out the kanji for the directions...which my writing skills are hazy at best)... and then also knowing I had to ORDER... Fearless leader, what? And I still managed to slop tea down the front of my shirt. :D Lucky it was a dark one! XD;;;;
We did try to be decorous, though giggling ridiculously through our meal. Ahem.
To Seoul tomorrow for a layover... Youtube! Twitter! Images we cannot see! We miss you!
Also, we nearly ran over an old lady on the way, and I mean that literally. She like appeared behind a car and was frozen as the taxi went WHOOSH and just missed her. Us in the back of the taxi: D: D: D: D: We nearly killed Grandma... Oh holy good gracious. And the merging. And the... Wait, I think I've indicated traffic here makes me close my eyes and think of Siwon. Thing I will miss least: anything that's me in a vehicle in China. And the illegal taxis make me squirm with fear and I'm not even in them...
