7 Days Inn (Dongguan Dongcheng)

... looking forward to spending much more time in Guangzhou as it is far more developed than Qingyuan. In fact people in Guangzhou joke that you know Qingyuan is a poorer, more remote, and less developed town because it has cleaner air and water! I have explored Qingyuan a little bit but it does not seem to have very much going on as far as night life. I hope to explore some its natural attractions which include hot springs, mountains, and forested areas.

... out of my league. I had joked earlier when Connie had told me that he wasn't that good that we should play 100 RMB a game! I am a reasonable player and have my moments on the table but this was amazing. It was like a scene out of Balls of Fury! I played with a few other people while I wasn't watching Axu's games. Everyone there wanted to play him and in the nearly 20 games he played he only lost a few. His opponents weren't slouches either. I played a few of them while they waited ...

... Insurrectional Martyr Cemetery Park.   It  is basically a memorial to those who died in the insurrection led by the Communist Party of China in December 1927.   http://www.gzlsly.com/English/  The park had several statues of the young communists as well as huge memorials. The park was really lively for a cemetery and we enjoyed listening to some traditional Chinese singing and dancing. Another ...

... little motivation to go back for a second look after a quick 1hr stroll around the entire park. By far, the most disapointing area of the entire tea plantation section of the theme park is the "Wetland Park". When they say wet, they mean there are fountains. Moreover, the "All Season Green House" was green alright; it had nothing but leafy vegetation and barely any flowers. The star attraction was apparently some 100kg ...

Baoan is located outside of the Shenzhen Protected Economic Zone, and thus there is a border crorssing fee to "enter China". The school that I taught at (though I still lived in She Kou) was a private school, whereas the school in She Kou was a public Kindergarten school. I taught in Baoan in the 2003, whereas I taught in She Kou in 2002-2003.

... 2 hour queue as the pickpockets' number one target as the only "laowai" in the bus station, so I wandered around figuring out other possible routes home: taxis, trains, small local buses. None really appealed, but I plumped for the option of a bus to the train station and was just boarding when my Chinese kicked in. There on the next bus, I could read a whole series of destinations in Shenzhen that would suit ...

... resort of Stanley. Easy to get to on the bus and it was another scorching day. We weren't planning to sit on the beach though but saunter round the market and perhaps go for the sea food lunch that everyone raves about. I don't know what it was about us and lunches but this was a disappointment as well. The sea here is lovely but I didn't take a shot of the actual beach as its not the best developed. They really haven't grasped the ...

... You can see the engine, drive shaft, breaks and steering assembly. They make a great noise but are probably an enviromental hazard. I want one, and I'd love to see Jeremy Clarkson drive one!! - Golf being expensive. Yes, I know it's not cheap in the UK, but here it is astronomical compared to the cost of living. It's the sport of a monied elite and the political classes. I'm earning easily 10 times the average salary here, but I couldn't believe it when ...
