funny faces

day 102: 风铃度 (fenglingdu) = 0km

I ran out of clean socks today. (Yes, even though I might look a bit weird by now, but I still change my socks everyday.)

Anyways, this was also a nice excuse to hang around in my hotel room, kick back and do nothing except ordering food.

I would pick up the phone and call the hotel restaurant, then a fatty little kid with a big smile would come to my door and deliver the nicest meals to me:

And what a nosy little fellah that kid was – he would set the plate down very slowly while twisting his neck trying to sneak around the whole room. He came back a bunch of times with different food.

Once he brought up his courage and asked me: “你在干什么?” – “What are you doing?”

My answer: “我在工作!” – “I am working.”

He emitted an Ah-sound that sounded like approval, then he smiled and left – slowly, ever so slowly closing the door behind him, while bending his neck trying to sneak around the room.

Little did he know I wasn’t working. In fact I was so bored doing nothing that I started playing around making funny faces to the camera:

Well, some faces are funnier than others.

Soundtrack: Lindon Kwesi Johnson – “It Noh Funny”

—total: 1357,1km
