    The wifi in rizhao sucks and I can't upload pics. Nice location of hotel right on the water yellow Sea. Off to yinan today I will upload pics when wifi permits. Had a good dinner at glass factories dining room onsite chefs and Bing Bing Qingdao beer. (cold cold) they drink beer room temperature here so they chilled a dozen for us.

    I remember a co worker, that worked in Reno, said that it was a law at the time to get 2 beers at the end of shift.

    Update

    3 days down 2 to go.

    - food is all fresh nothing frozen or processed at restaurants
    -every meal is family style with at least 8-10 dishes
    -bijou chinese firewater is awful and traditional toasts with it is still very much part of the dining process
    - chinese beer is 3.1% alcohol and very good
    -housing prices going crazy in major cities
    - lots of construction of apartment complexes


    Notes from plants
    - average wage of line worker is $500 US a month
    - they all have company housing and food provided
    -6 day work week for all including mgt
    - having problems retaining Young employees that don't want to do dirty work
    - more and more automation
    - plant cleanliness is now a priority
    - quality is improving
    - costs inflation rising

    Big Mac, I am enjoying the updates with all of the pics. Well, maybe not the one with the head left on the fish when it was brought to the table. I appreciate you showing us the area.

    Lol, how else are you supposed to know the filets you are being served are from the fish they say it's from?

    Loving all the reporting B! How many beers do you need to catch a buzz if they are all such low alcohol percentage?
    Other than the firewater, anything else you hated eating?

    Wasn't a fan of gigantic 🐌 it was so chewy and flavorless. The Chinese are masters of flavorful spicy sauces. The seafood gas been awesome. I have lots of pictures to share.

    As for beer they serve 20 oz beers and have been averaging 5 per dinner and haven't slept better. Lol
