A Dali-ghtful Thanksgiving

As per the traditions that were created last year, I returned to Dali for a taste of the holidays with friends last weekend. The leaves had changed, the cold was crisp but comfortable and I was with a handful of the friends that I've just begun to make this year.

CAUGHT: This boy was kicking the tree to make the golden leaves fall faster. 
Dali's pretty small and there's really nothing to do if you've done the bike rides and the deaf massages, Laura and I did a lot of random shopping and food eating. We found this:

How lovely.

We ate this:



It was so dark at the time that sadly, this is clearest picture of the food that I ate and I'm seeing it for the first time- 3 days later. Is it sad that since coming to China that I don't mind eating mystery foods in the dark as long as the promise of delicious rings true?

I think there might be as many pictures in this post as words. In short, Thanksgiving was necessary and I give thanks that I could take an excursion and spent the holidays with friends and loved ones. I can't wait until Christmas!
