The Giant and I

Xi'an to Pingyao

Xi'an to Pingyao

 

I met a giant who wanted to learn English so I started by teaching him the alphabet but no matter what I did he could only say the letter A in a deep low voice and pronounced no other consonant or vowel other other than the letter A. Tired, I begged him to let me go to sleep in his palms only to wake up and realise I was still on the train with a heavyweight snorer on the hard upper sleeper right next to me.
