Blisters and bathrooms... bowling and bliss

Our first few days in Nanjing were spent walking, walking, walking and literally following Bo's footsteps. He really wanted us to see Nanjing the way he had and to love it the way he had too. He had made many friends at university and we were lucky enough to meet some of them. Some had gone back to their home countries. The local Chinese people that he'd made friends with were the vendors on the street.... restaurant owners on Cheap Street and "Drink lady" at the entrance of the university. 
Unfortunately, Reuben wore the wrong kinds of shoes and ended up with many blisters. Thinking he could help, Tom let Reub wear his runners, Tom used a pair of Bo's runners and then there were two people with sore feet. 

We saw that some people            solved the problem of sore feet for their dogs...crocs! 

In addition to sore feet, Reub was the first to get "ladootza" which rhymes with turistas and is the Chinese version of Montezuma's revenge.

He spent the the day with his blisters, in bed and near a bathroom while we went bowling. Bo got his highest score ever: 215 and maybe I did too... 75. We're both winners! 

His friends were really fun to play with.
