... streets, shopfronts, and even rooftops fills the air all day. With few tourists to tend to, this has become the daily duty. <br> <br> The community has come together to deal with the unusual amount of snow, even recruiting five hundred students from the local middle school. They march the narrow streets, all carrying shovels, a procession on a mission. As they pass by me, they shout "hello!", and when I reply, they turn to each other and giggle. I try to coax more English out of ...

... sieltä Xianiin makuuvaunussa.<br><br>&#8220;Hard seat&#8221; on juuri sitä miltä se kuulostaa. Junalippuja ei myydä vain istumapaikan haltijoille vaan niin paljon kuin junavaunun käytävälle mahtuu ihmisiä. Kiinalaisvauvojen erikoisuus on halkiohousut, jotka tekevät vaippojen käytöstä tarpeetonta. Vieressäni seisonut äiti katsoi tarpeettomaksi viedä lastansa vessaan ja antoi pojan tehdä pissat lattialle.<br><br>Nuudelit ovat suosituinta matkaevästä junissa ...

... enchanting places Alex and I have visited.<br> <br>There is also the most brick-a-brac we have ever seen that we managed not to buy and send to John Cotterill - I did see a few great dragon dishes though and Alex filmed 2 cats getting frisky while the locals fell about laughing.<br> <br>After a day of fun and frolics we jumped on the night train and headed for Luoyang...<br>

... het gesprek: "wadiezie hou nie kwa koy Pingyao kemla ma mong zie si djunohedo Pingyao". In ons woordenboekje zochten we het woord voor " probleem?". Maar als je chinese woordjes gaat spreken begint het communicatieprobleem pas echt! Opeens denken ze dat je Chinees kunt. Je krijgt antwoord in het Chinees. Keurige volzinnen, maar wij verstaan er geen woord van en kunnen het antwoord dus ook niet opzoeken in het woordenboek. En dan? Daar sta je, buiten de stinkstad, op de plek ...

... br><br>I have griped and complained elsewhere of ruthless, dodgy, scheming and sometimes sleazy drivers. Taiyuan may well be a nice enough, if smoggy, city. However, my dominant memories of it were a minivan scandal, a lot of naked women, and a very bad haircut. Let me explain. <br>We flew from Harbin to Taiyuan, took off several layers of clothing, then caught a bus to the train station. Sadly, early Chinese New Year migration interfered with our rather nice plan of catching a train to ...

... to leaving for the theatre I met a young beauty named Jiang Ni. I was chatting to the hostel owners and she had just arrived and was paying for her nights stay. Her English was pretty cool so we decided to meet up after my theater adventure. For several hours we sat happily chatting at the table out front of the hostel. Around us romantic red lanterns swayed ...

... all very happy with the fact that sometime in the next two weeks they will be visiting Yunnan Province. Around ten we all said our goodbyes to the cute English girl and The Belgiums. Mr France and I shared a beer over talk of the Olympic Games. He was once a super Water Polo player and even played for Frances National Team so he will slowly make his way down through Yunnan Province and ...

... The warrior site is 2kms away. Inside a football pitch size hanger (Pit 1) is a huge area, only about one third excavated. At the front are ranks of warriors and horses, in between rammed earth walls which originally held up the roof. I hadn't realised that the site had been trashed by later invaders and all the warriors smashed. The archeologists are having to rebuild each - a giant 3D jigsaw puzzle! Got to go now - more later.
