Daniel had gotten a call from the Hueber Associates & Kim Gould's Steakhouse to fix some leaky plumbing in the restaurant, so he went to see what he could do to fix their problem so that the health department wouldn't close them down.

Mary was at home binge watching the hit show "Sims Kitchen" on the Cooking Channel where she had learned a variety of recipes such as Frog Legs, Vegetarian Chili, Fish & Chips, Chili Con Carne, Cheese Plate, Hot & Sour Soup, Egg Rolls, Bouillabaisse, Ratatouille, Mushroom Omelette, Cookies, Shawama and Fruit Parfait. She knew how to do some of them before but didn't realize that there was different ways to prepare them. So now she has a total of 29 recipes that she can fix plus now she has the "Menu Maven" in her book as well as being level 4 in cooking.

Amanda was upstairs practicing her painting. She could only start with a small painting and when she was done, it was worth 3 simoleons, so she kept it as it wasn't worth anything to sell it.

Lily was outside reading the newspaper so she can keep up with all of the daily news around town.

Charles went outside to work on the cars engine as we wants to get the car done before winter sets in.

Amanda went downstairs after she was done with her painting and asked her mom how her day was going. Mary told her about some of the recipes that she just learned from 'Sims Kitchen' and Amanda told her mom about the painting that she just did. Then Amanda told her about the athletic opportunity that she just got to go to Shang Simla to do, so her mom had asked if she was taking Daniel with her and Amanda told her that she hadn't even said anything to him yet about it.

After Amanda got done talking with her mom, she called Daniel up and asked him to come over as she has something that she want's to tell him. So when he got done with his side job, he came right on over and give Amanda a loving kiss.

After they were done kissing and had pulled away from each other, Amanda went on to tell him about her upcoming trip to China and wanted to know if he wanted to go with her and he said yes. So she called the travel agency to get 2 round trip tickets to Shang Simla and when the travel agent had asked for their travel Visa information, she gave them hers but Daniel said he never got a travel Visa before as he didn't know if he ever was going to do any traveling. So Amanda was only able to get 1 ticket for herself as it was too late in the evening for Daniel to apply for one.

Once Amanda had landed and was taken to the base camp, she went and checked the adventure board to see what events and activities was taking place for that day. So she saw an adventure that wants her to go to the Halls of the Lost Army and decided that would be a fun adventure to do. But before she had to go there, she had to go meet with Jiannan Lu to get more info on what she needed to do as well as get the 1st keystone that she would need once she figures out how to unlock the secret entrance to the catacombs that lay beneath the Hall.

So once she accepted the adventure from the board, she pulls out her broom and make her way up the hill to where Jiannan Lu lives. Once she gets there, she goes over and introduces herself to Jiannan Lu and told her that she was here for the adventure that she had posted on the board at the base camp.

After chatting with Jiannan Lu, she headed back down the hill and went towards the center of town where she decided to see what Biyu Shen has to offer but her wares couldn't be brought yet as Amanda needed to have some Visa points towards her Travel Visa.

After talking to Biyu Shen, Amanda headed on over to the Hall of the Lost Army where she noticed a strange tile on the floor that didn't look like the rest of the flooring, so she went and stepped on it to see if it would do anything. Once she stepped on it, it revealed a hidden staircase that led downstairs to the catacombs.

Once she got downstairs and had did a search of the hallway, she spotted the key shaped plaque on the wall that was the same shape of the keystone that Jiannan Lu had given her.

So Amanda had pulled the keystone out of her travel bag and hefted it up as high as she could so that she could get the keystone into the plaque. She had to try it a few times as she kept missing the hole in the plaque but finally got it in.

After she had managed to get it in and had pushed as hard as she could, the chains on the door had unlocked and fallen to reveal another room. Once she entered into the room, she saw another odd floor tile as well as a heavy looking statue. She studied the statue and the floor tile for a bit to figure out what she needs to do to get the door unlock so that she can see what's on the other side of it.

Once she figures out that she needed to pull the statue so that it sits on the odd tile, she moves it and the door unlocks to reveal another room with the same statue and odd tile. So she goes in and has to push that one onto the tile so that the other tile can be stepped on to unlock the door.
