... C'est le temps pour d'autres aventures. Je ramasse l'Hollandais et l'Australien et on va manger du canard Godly. On passe ensuite a la pharmacie chercher des medicaments, et pour le fun, je demande de la part de l'Australien (Qui a genre 45 ans) ou est le viagra! C'est dur expliquer en chinois mais en gros j'ai signifie que sa femme l'avait laisser parce il etait incapable de monter le chapiteau.

Une seule pillule goute genre 20$! Trop cher! On va acheter ca sur ...

... to an audiobook and rested on the hard, beady pillow.

Ying had advised me, in her long suffering paranoia about my safety, to take a taxi to her house from the train station, but the queue for taxis was about a mile long, eight people deep and taxi-less. The queue for the subway was similar in size, but at least it was moving, so I got a ticket and joined that one. People were jumping it the whole time, which was extremely aggravating to my refined western sensibilities, but I ...

... societies and cultures pride themselves on the same "equality" of opportunity, but Americans ask for more results. Now in the People's Republic, the people still can have that government role. Now there are national university entrance examinations, and the other day on CCTV 9 (the English language channel) I saw a bit about a small rural poor town in Southeast China that boasts that nearly 70% of its inhabitants pass the University ...

Jeg lagde mig syg indtil onsdag, da jeg, på trods af at jeg havde det meget bedre, ikke var parat til at sidde stille i 8 timer i ergonomisk dårlige stole og kigge ind i en computerskærm. Desuden gjorde de muskelafslappende piller mig noget træt. Mandag sov jeg derfor meget længe og tog om eftermiddagen på shopping i Nan Luogo Xiang. Jeg skulle egentlig have købt et par vinterstøvler men kom i stedet hjem med to bluser og en kjole. På vejen hjem købte jeg ind. I Kina ...

... s w**e suff**ing grievously because the pre-Olympic visa crackdown has kept foreign buy**s away. None complained. They w**e happy to sacrifice for the great** good - a notion instilled from birth. "It's the big wish of the 1.3 billion Chinese to have the Olympics," one said. "If the West has few** Fath** Christmases this year, it's worth it." For she** dynamism the Beijing Iron and Steel Company takes some beating. For 89 years its giant plant has blanketed ...

... indeed to see what happens during the olympics. moving on, we catch a cramped bus to beijing just outside the door of the arrivals hall. after many hours in traffic, we are sold on the rail system that has carried us around china previous to this. we arrive to our hostel late in the night and collapse into soft and clean beds. the next day we had many things to do. beijing is currently in a complete state of ruins in an effort to spiffy up before the olympics. whole ...

... t any leftovers, so I'll take that as a good sign. We went to Goose and Duck afterwards, a very American bar. Batting cages, darts, basketball, and a Chinese cover band that does surprising good covers of all your American rock favorites. The owner is a man named Jesse with a white beard down his chest, a mustache that he waxes, and a perfect hint of a Southern accent. He's a little piece of America that you would never ...

La idea de este tour es buena, pues nos facilita lo que nunca podriamos conseguir por nosotros mismo en el mismo tiempo: hoteles, transporte y otras actividades. Esta dirigido a mochileros asi que es barato. Lo unico es que vamos a abarcar un monton de sitios en muy poco tiempo y va a ser muy cansino y probablemente algo frustrante despues de haber viajado por nuestra cuenta y a nuestro ritmo. Un minibus nos ...

... weer op tijd terug zijn, want er zou iemand naar het appartement komen kijken. De komende week wil ik mijn schoolopdrachten die ik nog moet afmaken ook daadwerkelijk afronden, zodat als ik terugben uit Shanghai alleen nog maar mijn stageverslag hoef te maken in de twee resterende weken. Verder heb ik alles af. Dus ik hoef niks meer te doen als ik terugben in Nederland, alleen verslagen inleveren bij mijn begeleider op de NHTV in Breda.

... halls and viewed many of the holy relics sent to the Emperor from former Dalai Lamas - including an 18 metre high gilded wooden statue of the Buddha which is listed in the Guinness Book of Records as it's apparently made from a single tree trunk. Hard to believe as it is enormous - so big it took three years to transport it from Tibet to Beijing! (That was in the days before the new train you understand...) After getting our fill of ...
