The real China was really real Day 1

It has been an amazing experience. Few days in the world that is so different from everything i saw until now.

We flew to Naning, main city in Guanxi province with cheap airlines called Spring Airlines. The most interesting part was when before descending stewards came out and started running exercise for all passengers. It got even more interesting when we saw that most of the passengers followed. Me and F were so surprised that we had to work hard on withholding our laughter out of pure respect for people on the plane. I have promised myself to do all exercises on the way back. But unfortunately I didn't get a chance to do that because of turbulences that were so strong that shortly after stewards started exercises captain asked them to sit down.
At the airport we were picked up by one person from MaiTian (the most dedicated person I have ever met), one guy who was on his business trip (the company he is working for supports Maiatian and his boss asked him to go and see what and how actually is being done) and a driver. The vehicle we were sat in was... yes... old and broken in so many ways...
The hotel was ok. We got to meet a huge group of volunteers from Naning and a group of people that was going to go with us. Well, not so many of them were speaking English.

We has some food with us. We ate instant noodles for dinner and after having a short talk with Chinese girl who was kind of responsible for the trip, we went to sleep. The best part was ahead of us....
