Nan Hai Hotel Shenzhen

If you recall I started this not knowing what to expect of the people h**e. I have been h**e only a relatively short time, but long enough to p**haps get a small impression of Chinese folk, or at least the inhabitants of Shenzhen. <br><br> First of all in coming h**e you have to be comfortable to being scrutinised. Maybe because Shenzhen is not your typical tourist trap; being a West**n** garn**s attention ranging from a brief glimpse noticing you look ...

... day two I wondered over to Central and rode the mid-levels escalator, but couldn&#8217;t deal with the heat so thought I&#8217;d go chill (no of course I don&#8217;t mean that literally) at the beautiful Hong Kong park instead. I remembered from last year that there was a little pond in the middle with lots of terrapins and a great aviary with lots of exotic birds, a great place to play with the new camera! Then as it was such a clear day I got the tram up to the Peak to ...

... stuff. The things to do in hong kong are endless.  While we're here we want to visit some of the islands, rent bikes, go hiking, do some more shopping (even tho adam tells me not to), and try all of the interesting food.  well..its getting late here and i still have to shower.  its so humid outside that you sweat all day! to figure out the time difference for everyone in vegas...you just add three hours to whatever time it is there and then switch it from ...

We arrived, checked in, had time to kill, sat in a cafe,<br><br> <br><br><br>And then we went online and discovered that Lot has been offered a job in Adelaide woo hoo!<br><br> <br><br><br><br>We are over the moon.<br><br> <br><br>Gone for a walk. Good night.

... blend - but was too chilled for my liking - it was as cold as you would serve a Sparkling. We got to Hong Kong and got the hotel Shuttle Bus (after getting lost at the airport - not good with 5 bags and 3 annoyed kids and 1 annoyed wife) - but we got on and went to Tower No 1 at TinShui Wai - about 35 mins north of Kowloon. The hotel itself was nice - but we got ****** around ...

... will probably be early afternoon by the time you reach Mong Kok... Luckily enough, you are at the right place at the right time... surrounded by many authentic eateries and restaurants where you can enjoy some delicious local food at reasonable prices. <br> <br>Curry A La King on 88 Soy Street, a couple of minutes walk from Ladies' Market, is a paradise for curry lovers, serving a wide selection of scrumptious curries from ...

... same building or is less than a three minute walk from my front door. Almost every single one of the 188 business exchange students live on campus in the student residence and it is very very unlikely to go to the cafeteria and not meet half a dozen people that you know. As a result, I gained a perspective of those cultures that I just simply didn't understand on my last trip, and built up a new appreciation for the people I grew up around back home. A ...

... noch nicht vorgedrungen. Auch das Sitzen auf Rasen ist gen**ell nicht möglich. Jedenfalls war d** Weg mit Bäumen gesäumt und d** Fluss gefüllt mit kleinen Fischen. Letzt**e lockten auch zwei Katzen an, die selbst für europäische V**hältnisse gut genährt aussahen. Scheinbar sind Fische manchmal doch nicht so schnell wie die Mietzen. :) Wir v**plaud**ten uns ein wenig und bekamen dann ab** doch noch den letzten Zug zurück zur Uni. Und dann ging es auch schon ins Bett.

... about accepting 50 yuan notes which are regularly forgeries. Anytime I take a taxi I'm like a hawk when it comes to the change as the drivers seem to be the main conduit of fake notes into day-to-day life. However, these days it's the 1 yuan coins which are the problem. There are so many in circulation that it's a massive inconvenience to check each one, but the next thing you know you realise that you've got a handful of coins with silver paint chipping ...

"I'm sick, I have to go to the hospital." It sounds serious doesn't it? If you come from a country with a system of community general practitioners, it is certainly concerning. However, this is China and you have to go to the hospital for any kind of medical expertise - unless you want to go and speak to the local witch doctor! Personally, I have never been to a hospital with a row of ATM's and cash desks in the lobby. Nor have I ever ...
