Chinese National week means a week off to celebrate the founding of the People Republic of China. Or in our case a 7 day break from our internship. I really needed this because we've been working hard these last weeks to round of the first phase of our internship. 5 days a week 8 hours a days going over aerodynamics theories and lines of code. Searching for bugs and errors in attempt to get the correct results.
This week we used to explore Xian a bit and bring a visit to Xian's Bell and Drum tower both located in the city center. Both building are relatively small compared to previous tourist attractions, but still quite amazing to see. The fact that Bell Tower was moved stone by stone in order to retain it's center location in the city was quite amazing. Linc took me out to eat hotpot and Gaby took me out to some local "hidden" restaurants around Bell Tower. The food is just great here I have discovered something called a Chinese Hamburger. Which is a combination of a pita bread some pork. Delicious and almost sold on every corner.
At the end of the week we decided to go to an event park a little bit north out of the city. Here we went for a heat of carting outdoor. I would have expected to have some close races unfortunate my cart was the slowest off them all and this really showed on straight lanes. After the heat we played a game bowling and finished by diving in to a swimming pool.
For dinner Gaby and Irene took Stefan and me out to one of the better hotpot places to eat. The food was great and I was able to get my shoes polished for free.
Overall a great way to finish National Week.
