We said our farewells and I exclaimed in my best Arnie voice, "I'll be back! Oh, no" I muttered to myself. Well actually it was a lot mor...

http://apj.co.uk/tales/china.htm

Flights to New York. Flights to Las Vegas. Into China - 3 Weeks in the cold. The trick to travelling is not to get too worked up about it. My three weeks in China, partly with flatmate Rick, was a cold, sometime frustrating but a totally unforgettable experience. Location map of China. I've been to China before, some four years ago, so I am looking forward to seeing the ch-ch-chch changes, as David Bowie would say.
