Description

I did not know which Genre to place this into. Not being with the tourist in China allows me opportunities to experience things most travelers cannot. I made friends with a man on a bus who invited me to his fathers factory the next day. After taking the tour, he asked me to attend his brothers wedding party which was being held in the family's traditional village further down the road. After the villagers beat the brides bedroom door open, and it was discovered the groom had lost his shoe, he had to pay a heavy ransom (dowry) to the father of the bride. Of course, the gang affair is all staged, but quite traditional and fully amusing. Thanks for viewing my images.
