Which brings us to today. We are here, in China. People are speaking Chinese, menus are written in some strange foreign language, people use the parks for exercising. It's all quite lovely.
You know, so far I've been in India, Nepal, Thailand, Malaysia, Singapore and China. Only in China is it difficult to get along without speaking the local language. All those other places, English is spoken quite frequently. This place should be challenging.

Thank goodness you spent all that time in China already learning Chinese... oh wait, you left early and didn't learn much, if I remember correctly. Well, you've always got your health. PS watch out for the bird flu. ;) Have a great time in China!
