I love the tattoo. Also I've loved all of the China trip and a lot of the signs (especially the ones about the grass) had me cracking up.

there were a lot of poor-english signs, but i only felt the need to photograph the especially funny ones. :)

This was great Lish! Also I love that Joe tried to lick the one testicley mouse pad instead of all the surrounding bewbie mousepads. <3

you & your obsessions. those are clearly butt cheeks, not testicles.

Either way it still makes me smile! lol

I'm rather awful about keeping up with LJ anymore but randomly logged on tonight, saw you mention your trip on GUDU, and came on over to take a look. What an amazing trip! I had such a great time tonight reading through your tales. I [selfishly] hope you have many more opportunities to travel in the near future, just so that I can read about your's & Joe's adventures :)

haha i think that's the best selfish wish ever?

glad you liked it. :)

Thanks so much for sharing all of this. I will be looking at the groupon offerings and my schedule for next year to see if we can do it. Sounds like a really great trip and a bargain at that.

it was AMAZING & amazingly cheap. i'd do it again in a heartbeat. :)

thanks for sharing, I really enjoyed reading this (and the photos, too :)). great trip, I've been considering visiting China myself, now I'm considering it even more.

I planned to do a similar travel log for my last trip... but still haven't (and probably never will...). kudos to you :D

it pleases me greatly when people enjoy reading & not just looking at the pics. :) oh you should SO go, you'd have a fucking blast! there's another excellent groupon for china going on now... http://www.groupon.com/deals/ga-nexus-holidays-2
