We went to a few hotels asking if they had any rooms available (yaa... we are horrible planners).... and many of them didn't... then we found one right on the beach! And its only 230 a night (like $32). Not only is it on the beach.. but has a window facing the beach! We decided to get just it for 2 nights... not knowing if we want to travel elsewhere.
The next few days were a bit raining.. but no to bad.. we had random hour or so of sunshine each day... but it was usually just cloudy. As we were walking around we were kinda shocked at the number of people that weren't Chinese..... but as we got closer to them we figured out they were all Russian. So the Chinese people that work around here are pretty used to the Russians that don't speak Chinese. So they would automatically try to just show us the price of things on a calculator and stuff like that... but once we started talking to them in Chinese they all became much more friendly and prices started to drop a bit :)
Today was a REALLY pretty day and we spent a lot of it out on the beach..... which is actually pretty clean.. .for the most part.... I was kind of afraid of how a beach in China would be. Littering isn't even thought of as bad here... its just the way of life... finish something.. throw the wrapper on the ground. But this beach is advertised as being very clean... not because the people litter less.. but they just have a hordes of workers going and picking up trash all the time. So the beach itself is really clean.. there is still some random shit floating in the water... but not to bad.
So far very good and successful beach trip!
