So I went to China - Introduction

[rydain]

14-hour budget flights are miserable. A googolplex more so with a sinus infection. Never again am I repeating this exercise without enough packed food and iDistraction battery power to last me through a nuclear apocalypse. I stumbled off the return flight like pasty death. Three days later, I'm almost recovered

Sounds like you had a crazy and fun time! LOL SEX MUSEUM?! I'm curious... :P

[rydain]

Yeah - it was a great trip! The sex museum is a collection of erotic art and artifacts from ancient times to more recent history, housed in beautiful grounds that used to be a school. It doesn't allow photos, so I didn't take any of my own, but I can find enough for the eventual writeup. Here's a small collection for now. (This intro page is rated E for everyone - the others, not so much.)

I'm pretty sure being trapped in the economy seating of a jetliner for fourteen hours is one of the outer levels of hell described in Dante's inferno. :) But what an amazing trip. After all these years, I still haven't left the country, much less western-influenced civilization.

It was amazing indeed, and I would love to go back - especially to see more sights off the usual tourist track, such as hiking along the unrestored sections of the Great Wall. I hope there is a similar adventure in your not so distant future. ^_^
