So, yesterday Baba, Matthew, Zachary, and I went to buy peanut oil (we had to go all over the place because no one near us had any, which is weird as they use it often in Chinese cooking). After about thirty-maybe-more minutes, we found it in a big crowded market. Small bottle for 35 yuan.
BUT that's not important.
While wandering back to our apartment complex, we encountered a group of boys who were enjoying themselves with a game of ping pong. Baba used to play ping pong quite often back at Shaanxi Normal (which he attended before he went to his present Chinese school) and occasionally now. Baba asked one of the boys (English name: Jason) if he could play. [As in, he pointed at the table and asked, "Wo ke yi ma? 我可以吗? Can I?"]
He asked me to take some pictures whilst he was playing, which I did.
I also took an almost-three minute video. :) Because it was easier to just move the iPod around rather than repeatedly take pictures. There was too much movement for proper pictures. The photos would have been blurred.
At Baba's suggestion, we are now posting the video. :D See, here it is! Enjoy.
