Day 2: Tutorials & Home cookingOn this day we’ll be acclimating ourselves to the city—probably we’ll all naturally get up pretty early because of the jet lag. The most important things are that we get a phone for you (the folks) and teach you how to utilize the tech. This is something that you shouldn’t really need to do, but helpful in case of emergencies. Shuwen and I will also activate our phones and we will simply enjoy some food as we wander the city.
In the evening we will go to Shuwen’s parent’s house for a home cooked meal. A likely menu will be: 
Homemade Dumplings (Chive & Pork, or Carrot & Pork)
Small cold dishes 
   







Things to do in Jinan
Each day we will have a fair amount of chilling time where we can occupy ourselves in whatever way we wish. A few things we can try to pepper into our day:
Baotu Spring Park
Daming Lake
Black Tiger Spring
Shandong Art Museum
See a movie
Wander the gigantic mall across from the hotel
Play poker
Nap
