Took a 10-hour train from Changsha to Nanning, a south-China city about 250 miles from Vietnam's capital, Hanoi.
Not sure why the Chinese characters "su chao mian" (stir fry noodles) are translated as bowel of noodles. The underwear are in the bathroom at the Nanning hotel where I'm staying. Actually pretty logical, though incorrect, use of English. They are not free for the taking, thus the message on the package, "uncomplimentary."
Nanning seems more like Vietnam than China. Lush, hot, tropical, and a million scooters.
