Cheers my Sisters

My friend Judith and I recently went out to dinner to a Korean BBQ restaurant.  The menu was entirely in Chinese, so ordering was a bit of a challenge.  We put our trust in the waiter, and ordered a few different things to try.  However, the atmosphere was great, everyone enjoying themselves.  Every time someone would take a shot or cheers, the entire restaurant would participate in yelling "Gam Bay".  (Cheers in Chinese).  We decided to join in the fun, and the table next to us introduced themselves.  After we told them we were from America, it was pure joy on their faces.  Turns out we were the "first American friends they have ever had".  After the "Merry Christmas Cheers", we decided to go to KTV (Karaoke box).  Karaoke is taken very seriously here, chandeliers and private rooms.  It really is an unique experience.  We ordered french toast and cheese sticks, Judith and I sang some classics, while our new friends sang in Chinese.  We called it a night, and before we got home our new friend created a Facebook group with the three of us called "Cheers my Sisters".  It was a great experience hanging with some locals!
