My coworker and I left Beijing and our 5-Star hotel on Monday morning for a city in Northeast China. Without complaining, I'd just like to say that I'm ready to come home. Everything smells here, including this dim and musty hotel room. I won't even begin to talk about the bathrooms here. I don't mean to sound spoiled, I did live in these conditions, worse actually, for the first 11 years of my life. I guess I have higher living standards now and it's hard to do it again. It does give me perspective, that's for sure.
I'm thankful that there is Internet access at the hotel, even if it drops off every five minutes. Also, my business language skills are improving by the second. I love speaking Chinese all the time!
In the photo are residents who 扭秧歌 on the streets, it's a form of folk dancing and there are groups and groups of them all over the city shortly after dinner time.
