China - Day 1
I lied when I said my flist would get a weeks worth of peace from my comments and posts since we get free internet in our hotel rooms.
Went to the zoo and to an acrobatic show today. Both were lovely. Getting to and from both was not. Word of advice: do not go to China without someone who is fluent in Chinese. The signs are all in Chinese and hardly anybody speaks anything other than Chinese. If you want to go out of the city where all the interesting stuff is, you'll have to deal with the Chinese bus system which is impossible to navigate if you do not know Chinese. More details to come when I am not so tired.
