Confucian temple - sun 25th jan

Confucian temple is very pretty and peaceful. Lots of old stone-figures, -tablets and trees stand magesticly in grand open courtyards with buildings lining the sides. All the buildings are made of wood and beatifully painted in vivid colours.
The building open for the public has been made into museums, with expositions about Confucious, the time he lived in and his ideas/ideals. I didn't read all the signs, just random ones, 'cause I prefer to go around and just get a feeling of the place and how it must have been like to live there then. But what I did read was very interesting, and it's definitedly worth going into the buildings, even when it's freezing cold and you just want to find somewhere warm. 'Cause it gives you a lot of background info and you get to learn about one of the most important(I think..) thinkers in China, if not the world.
I got lost from the group I was going with at one point, took a turn or something they didn't, and ended up going around on my own. Got a bit nervous when they started closing the doors and locking the gates, 'cause I really don't want to spend the night there. Walked a bit faster and kept a close eye on the other people there, so if they started leaving I would too. But I managed to see everything there, I think, it's a bit confusing finding your way when you don't have a map, but I managed. I even found the others again!
And as A said, if I got locked in I could've just found a guard and asked him to let me out. There's guards everywhere all the time.
For dinner we didn't really feel like going out, 'cause we weren't really hungry enough. So ended up playing cards and eating cookies/bread&peanutbutter! Mums!
