Day three in china

Today we went to a silk factory where we saw how they take the silk worms and find the end of the silk so that they can make garments and the twin worms that are together are used for comforters because they can't find e ends of the silk so they just stretch out the fibers and add all of them together. I bought some gifts there for all the people who helped me get here!! I also bought a fathers day gift! After the silk factory we went to the Mongolian restaurant. We got wifi only outside when we were on the bus!!!! We took an hour train ride to hongzhou. Where we met our new guide Rebecca. As soon as we got into hongzhou we went to the 6 harmonies pagoda and it was beautiful!! It was a great view of the river and the trees on the hills around the tall pagoda! The stairs leading up to the top were horrible!!! And it was pretty humid in the stairways! After the pagoda we went on a (FAST) walk around this garden that had amazing Chinese buildings and beautiful peacocks!! We went to our new hotel about 40 minutes away and we had a meeting about getting name chops and about the history of the honest language. We ate dinner and it was alright, but I loved the rooms and he view we got Of the street!
