Day 23: Paul appears in the Paper

Today I was given a copy of the 'Gānsù Rìbào' (The Gansu Daily), the largest distributed newspaper in the Gansu Province and, lo-and-behold, there was a photo of me on the front page! This photo had been taken at the National Trade Fair at Pingliang, and shows me being presented a glass of biajiu.

I cannot yet read any of the caption or the surrounding newspaper columns, which creates an even greater yearning to learn the language.
