Zhongxing Hotel Deqing

... and Potatoes and it was fairly expensive for China. It reminds me of that Japanese restaurant we went to for Rhedyn's birthday on Chapel St. The food was tasty, but I guess I can thank myself for that! haha.

Today I changed some money in preparation for the next few days adventures.

EDIT: Appaears that China won't let me upload the Video. So that is disappoiting. Enjoy the pictures.

... busy there, in particular the bargain bin, where nothing is over 3 RMB (50c). It was so crowded there I couldn't even see what all the fuss was about. I was able to buy 2 600ml Pepsis, a packed of Pretzels, a large bag of Dorritos, Chocolate Milk and some Cadbury Chocolate all for 17RMB ($2.80).

Some large videos seem to not want to upload on here. But I will try it again.

Last night we went to the KTV. KTV is a very elaborate Karoake centre. Karaoke is extremely popular in most asian countries and given the increasing demand, the Karaoke centres are like palaces in which customers get first class service. Basically the place is set up into mini rooms and you hire a room based on the amount of people you bring with you. Larger rooms are available for larger parties, but we got a small room as there was only 3 of us. Food and ...

... In fact theives target young people, as these are the people who have the most money, given that they don't have to support a family and have just started earning money for themselves.

It isn't so cold today, although maybe I am just getting used to it.

Tonight or tomorrow night we will go to the KTV Karoake bar, extremely popular in China. The girls told me that the only English songs are old ones, but I am happy enough to see how the KTV system works.

... 20 nuggets, large chips and large Coke was only $3AUD. What a bargain!

Afterwards I went to a big supermarket based on the French version called Carrefaur or something like that. It is like a cross between a KMart and a Coles supermarket with everything from vegetables to 50' Plasma TVs.

All is good. Enjoy the videos and pictures.

... where kindergarten was just getting out for the day, so about a hundred smiling Chinese kids waved as we passed. But after a while we were in the middle of a very modern city, with a nice board walk along the lake. There was the local tv station. Of course we were on the bike lane of the highway, passing everyone from yuppies in suits to old woman and men carrying farm goods on their backs. As we got into the center of town there was ...

... him and the road uphill to find something to eat. There's apparently one small road with a few small restaurants in Moganshan, so we picked one and ate a good meal. We were all exhausted, so we headed back to the hotel for a group bonding activity involving throwing a beach ball with questions on it and answering them. By then, it was quite late so we slept. Several classmates were unhappy at Moganshan so instead of leaving at 2pm on Friday like we planned, we checked out at ...

... The tour bus then took us to the next stop on our school's employee-bonding trip-a traditional Chinese village. We've seen various examples of old Chinese cities. Guangzhou and Zhaoqing had some. Foshan has a run down back-alley area where the buildings are made of grey brick and the lanes are only big enough to accommodate one ubiquitous motor scooter at a time. Dan and I wander around there sometimes, but not at night. There's also a ...

... me amongst these busy times, and we ate our last meal at Noah's with my parents. At Noah's I met John from the United States, who was also going to Kawo Karpo. He was going to circumambulate the mountain whereas I was continuing to Lhasa through the river gorges and over northern passes. Perhaps we would meet along the way. ******n met us at the Tibet Cafe and Inn, where my parents were staying. We headed through the Yangtze River Valley, over a pass graced ...
