Well, I've been remiss to do my daily logs. But, I'm sitting at the airport in Shanghai, and I have quite a while before my flight takes off... so I'll try to get at least days 13 and 14 recapped.

Highlights from Day 13:

• Tianjin... a city that exists purely because the Chinese government said "make it so". Why? Well, purely for importing and ( Read more... )

This one is going to be long... It's late, and I can't remember the silly lj cut thingy... so, again, I'm sorry for the length on your page:

We still have another week to go in Shanghai, but I think this might end up being one of my most memorable days. It was exactly what I wanted it to be. I told awl before I left that really all I wanted was at ( Read more... )

I'm splitting days 11 and 12 up because 12 was so special that I wanted it to have it's own post... So, sorry about the two posts in a row...

Highlights from Day 11:

• Got up and went to see Crystal Graphics CG here in China. It's the firm that helped to enhance the scrolls and Bird's Nest from the Beijing Olympics. The company is young and vibrant ( Read more... )

So, the days are beginning to bleed into one another and I'm sort of losing count, but I think that's more to do with me being mostly bed ridden.

Day 9 Highlights:

• Got up with everyone and headed to the Great Wall. I was told that the pollution would be less. It was, but still more than even our worst days in New York or LA. The Wall was ( Read more... )

Don't know how much I'll be able to post in the next two weeks. There are a few sites blocked here in China, and this might become one of them.

Day 7 Highlights - Amsterdam:

• Spent most of the day indoors. Stupid cold. Really missed out on some good times with my school mates. Still depressed about it, and a little bitter honestly.
• Hubby did my ( Read more... )

Sorry about the joint days... I've been terribly under the weather... sniffly, coughing, feverish... it's been awful.

Day 5 Highlights:

• Took the Metro to the Concorde stop. Drizzly and cold like the rest of the trip. Stop and have breakfast at a little cafe in the Tuileries. Crepes... with Sucre for me... and Nutella for him. So it was more like ( Read more... )

More on my journeys through Europe...

Today's Highlights:

• Headed over to the Louvre. So, did you know that the Louvre is closed on Tuesdays? Yeah, me neither. I even looked at the site last night online, and didn't see mention of it. We went to get off the on/off bus the guide wouldn't let us because, well, the Louvre was closed.
• Decided on going ( Read more... )

To those of you that have no interest in my world tour... tough. I'm trying to put together a quick blog so I can remember it later on. You can just ignore me. Those of you reading... I hope that you are enjoying my bullet points of my trip.

Today's Highlights:

• Slept late. Really didn't think the not bringing a watch or an alarm clock through. ( Read more... )

Ah Paris!!! We've made it, and it was an adventure to get here! We should probably label today as: A REALLY Freakin' Long Walk. My feets they are angry with me.

So today's highlights:

• Got up late, and had breakfast at Garfunkel's for the second morning in a row. ( Read more... )

To finish out the program, I have a two week international residency in China. To celebrate my upcoming release from school, awland I are galavanting about Europe while our roommate mans the ( Read more... )
