Woot, things are looking up for China. Some of you may know that sauron19, wizlow and me are heading off to China next year. Basically it's a little bit of sight seeing combined with some training. We'll be working more on the combat side of Tai Chi, and some work at the Shaolin Temple. Things were looking a little wonky last week though. We were told the flights would cost over £200 more than we were originally told. We all had a bit of a think and even looked into going by ourselves later in the year We decided to stick with plan A because flights later in the year cost more, and also because any more faffing about may mean we'll never actually go. Well we just got confirmation, the flights are booked. So IT's all happening. Also the flights were only £90 more than we were told, which really isn't that bad. 8 People have bailed on the trip though. Possibly because of the extra cost (but in the grand scheme of things £90 isn't that much more) or possibly because they've realized just how much hard work it's going to be :)
I can now enjoy watching Kung Fu on Thursday nights with a warm fuzzy feeling that we will be going to many of the same places seen in the flash backs to Cain's training in China :) Also now that I have rested my knee a little I can start getting to work getting fit for the trip and acclimatizing myself to Chinese food. I think the new Chinese shop has just opened up just in time for me:)
