After breakfast, I head to a little hair shop in my Hutong (alleyway) for a wash and flat iron.

Her mom also wanted to know how many kids are you 'allowed' to have in the US, she didn't really seem to understand that it's up to individual families to decide. China still has 1-child policy, but mostly only in the big city. After my massage, they cooked me lunch! Winter melon with pork and rice. They live and work in the same place, so it was interesting to see their home situation. In fact, my massage was in the daughter's bedroom!
After lunch, I went back to my room to grab some candy for them, and of course they couldn't have me give them something and nothing back in return :p so they also gave me an apple!
From the salon, I took the subway to the Temple of Heaven, a huge complex of Taoist temples
