A Walk in the Park

Today we had a fairly quiet day.  We had a very casual breakfast, and then returned to our room for an hour or so before meeting our guide Jenny in the lobby.  Once we met we left for a park in Nanchang.  The park is the major park for the residence of Nanchang.  It's beautiful.  Lots of people doing all sorts of things even a retiree practicing his Chinese calligraphy using a brush and water on the sidewalk.  See photo below.

There was even a celebrity spotted!  All the high school students spotted someone and insisted on getting their picture taken with him.  See photo below.

Just as we were leaving we had a very interesting moment.  While our car was just about to pull up, a man came up to me asking if I was an American.  I said "yes" and he then accused me of being a member of the CIA and started to yell at me.  He was starting to get aggressive and waving a finger in my face.  I had Maisey in my arms so I got a little concerned that I would have to get aggressive.  Thank God, my guide Jenny started to yell at him in Chinese and which gave me time to get into the car with Maisey.  He then kicked our guide and then several men nearby came to her aid.  We were able to get out before anything happened.  Although now I will need to call Langley and tell them my cover has been blown.
