Hutong Visit & Lunch with local family

We had a rickshaw ride around one of the few remaining Hutong Areas (traditional neighbourhoods) in Beijing today and then lunch with a "family" in the Hutong. He was a Kung fu teacher and one of his sons was teaching Kung fu in Dallas Texas. Apparently the one child policy only applies to the majority Han Chinese and the other 56 minorities don't have same restriction. He was Manchurian. 
At his house saw the largest pet grasshopper (fattest) I have ever seen. I had to give our rickshaw peddler a big tip having to tow Laureen & me around, he was sweating on the slight inclines.
