Nearly got up at 8.30 but ended up being 10am. Lunch of quail eggs and yoghurt again but at least in the afternoon Xixi agreed to go out with me and we found our favourite watermelon place and drank it over a chat where the ant tree used to be, spending a lovely hour or two together chatting about which would be the best countries to live in etc. She still wants to study in Sweden at least but we'll see how long that lasts.

On the way back we were talking about pets so I stopped off at the cat shop I'd seen before but not entered. Oh there were some of the cutest cats we've ever seen and made us miss Ami a lot. There is nothing cuter than one-month-old kittens. The owners gave us toys to play with them and some snacks and we ended up spending about 45 minutes there.

Back home a bit later I took advantage of the relatively cool weather (it definitely wasn't the 29 degrees it said it was) and filled up one of the 15 litre water bottles again, before Leilei took Xixi out to "central" as they now call the centre of Pingguo. So I heated up the last of their horrible takeaway chicken for tea and ended up just watching the cricket and grand prix like last weekend. I was invited out to sing song at nearly 11pm but for once decided against it as really must get into a routine now for the last three weeks. So I watched some of the Serbia v USA basketball game while Haiwei's son was explaining some of the rules to me and how they differ from the NBA (e.g. the 3 point line is closer to the net).
