Today started out with a quick breakfast at McDonald's, and a train ride out of Hong Kong back to mainland China. We went to Shenzhen mainly for shopping. Our first stop was the Seg Electronics Market. Eight floors of computer components and equipment at rock bottom prices. Everything from blank computer boards, RAM, USB Memory Sticks, cameras, and every other part imaginable.Next we had lunch at a hot pot. Spices are brought to a boil in the middle of the table and you cook various vegetables and meats in the delicious broth. It was one of the best meals we have had so far since arriving in China.
The afternoon was spent shopping in another mall that mostly sold watches, clothing, purses, and other consumer goods. Overall another fantastic day, here are the pics:
The Seg Electronics Market, 8 Floors of hi-tech goodness.
Inside endless rows of booths house the merchandise.
Sometimes the menus in China are challenging, but my Chinese is getting much better..

Unfortunately the ice cream shop was out of corn flavor.
