Hello I dont have too much to report. And I feel like my previous post/posts were a bit too long/boring! But I do have some observations, that I find quite interesting.
1) We flew on China Airways or some similar line today. And half way through, they led group excercises/ stretches. Start by wiggling your nose. Then clasp your hands, stretch forward. Stretch up. Stretch forward, bring hands to chest, push hands forward. One set of 10. You get the picture.
2) Another bathroom update. China airports: Squat toilets. But with automatic flushers. You'd think if you could have an automatic flusher, you could build a seat. Wtf.
3) A baby bathroom update. (The bathroom is starting to be a trend... weird... sorry) Babies/toddlers do not wear diapers. They simply have a hole in the crotch. Then when they need to go to the bathroom, the parent simply straddles them over the curb of the street. Then continues to hold them straddled in the air to air dry. How sanitary.
4) New Chinese word of the day: Jigga. Yep like in the Jay-Z song. Jigga means "this one." Replace the j with an n and you either get a bad word, or the chinese word for "that one." Hope someone tells the Chinese when they come over to the states, otherwise they could get some bad looks.
O also! Our itinerary has changed due to the pouring rain i much of the country. Basically everything between Guilin and Chengdu is reversed. Mmk that is all. Off to climb Mt. Emei tomorrow. Wish me luck!
